The Scientific Concert: New Music Distilled from Geology, Physics, and Chemistry
Part of the Science on Tap series
Jean-François Charles will present how collaboration with musicians, scientists, and technicians has been at the core of the creative process for Scientific Concert, a show premiering on October 27, 2019. Charles will focus on the composition of “Petrasonic,” his sonata for double bass and percussion, which was created at the crossroads of music and geology. He will also demonstrate new musical instruments made of stones and detail some of the teamwork involved in the creative process.
