CUSP Presents: Tendrils Trio // Ryan Carter

Tendrils Trio, supergroup of bassoonists Katherine Young, Dana Jessen, and Ben Roidl-Ward, performs Altarpiece H. af K. by Eric Wubbels, of Wet Ink Ensemble. Altarpiece H. af K. is a study in the acoustics of complex sounds. Ryan Carter composes for instruments, voices, and computers. Ryan's work often explores new musical possibilities presented by emerging technologies, while remaining critical of the assumptions and unintended side effects embedded in them. Ryan performs live electronic music that is synthesized in real time from code that responds to input from a video game controller.
