米勒演奏厅
跟我们说说骰子三吧! 你是谁?? 你是怎么来的?
骰子: Dice is a proponent of the music of our time. The ensemble regularly performs innovative, boundary-pushing new music 和 values the progressions of such music. 除了, Dice places an emphasis on inclusivity in regard to venue spaces, 金融的可用性, 还有合作作曲家.
We all met last fall as incoming master’s students in the 当代的表现 program (CPP). In October, we were asked by former 作文 student 宋美龄吴 (MM ’23) to play her work for an MSM composer’s concert 和 began working together more closely. We had such a blast working on this project 和 became fast friends. After the performance we decided to form a trio because we couldn’t imagine not making music together.
As a trio, who are your inspirations?
骰子: We take inspiration from current 和 past MSM students — learning so much about performance, 作文, 以及来自同行的合作. New music ensembles in NYC — especially ensembles who started through CPP — inspire us to push music in a new direction as we 继续 our careers outside of MSM. We are especially grateful for professors who have continuously inspired 和 guided us as we have grown this past year. We want to give a special thanks to professors 艾琳·罗杰斯 和 Dr. 玲子抛出 who are invaluable mentors to us, personally 和 professionally.
“We are so grateful for the resources, 机会, 和 support that we have received as CPP students. We have learned so much about how to be champions of new music, 和 we have made friendships that we will carry with us far after graduation.”
Why should people come 和 see this performance?
骰子: Our concert features seven new works written for us by current 和 former MSM 作文 students, 都有着截然不同的风格. We will be playing music with electronics, alternate tuning systems, 和 theatrics. 除了, we are collaborating with 女高音陈悦 on three of the pieces 和 are so excited to be working with such a talented vocalist!
Tell us about the pieces you’ll be presenting at the MultiPhonics节日.
骰子: Our performance at the MultiPhonics节日 will feature the same program that we are presenting at MSM. 除了, we will be leading a master class 和 workshop for a new music ensemble in the area.
What piece of advice do you have for anybody interested in the CPP program at MSM?
骰子: 这样做! We are so grateful for the resources, 机会, 和 support that we have received as CPP students. We have learned so much about how to be champions of new music, 和 we have made friendships that we will carry with us far after graduation.
