Eli Wallace<\/strong> solo: pr\u00e4pariertes Klavier<\/p>\n

Pianist\/improviser\/composer\/sound artist Eli Wallace<\/strong> approaches every facet of his musical endeavors (whether playing solo piano, interpreting compositions, or improvising\/creating with others) with a singular intensity and attention to detail. For this solo piano concert, Wallace will play an extended, uninterrupted improvisation. When playing alone, he marries his instinct for visceral extemporization with his interest in calculated musical premeditation, planning in real-time, and using spur-of-the-moment ideas to sculpt the musical morphology as the concert progresses. His musical toolbox on the piano ranges from traditional piano playing to extended techniques, where he plays inside the instrument, including on the strings, pins, and frame. In preparation for this performance, he will prepare the entire instrument using wood, metal, and plastic objects in such a way that leaves doors open to an enormous array of possibilities; the preparations will be set, but the shape of the improvisation will be undetermined. Each piano is distinct, and each concert unlocks new avenues for exploration both in the preparation process and the performance. The end result elevates the instrument to new heights, transcending its conventional limitations and bringing us into the multitudinous environment of abnormal and iconoclastic sounds emerging from the piano.<\/p>\n

„This is state of the art pianism, with the keyboard and inside piano work fully integrated.“ – Stewart Smith (The Wire)<\/p>\n

Eli Wallace<\/strong> is a pianist, improviser, composer, and curator who resides in Brooklyn, NY. He works as a solo artist but also collaborates with musicians in improvised and creative music communities such as Nate Wooley, Cecilia Lopez, Nick Neuburg, Kyle Motl, Michael Foster, Jessica Ackerley, Sam Newsome, Sandy Ewen, Carlo Costa, Lisa Cameron, Joe Moffett, Pablo Vazquez, Camilo \u00c1ngeles, Amanda Irarr\u00e1zabal, and so many others. After releasing his first studio solo piano album, pieces & interludes, he embarked on a rigorous worldwide tour, including South America, the United States, and Europe. He continues to release new material and tour worldwide as a soloist and in collaborative groups. Recent projects include duo releases with Alex Cunningham and Camilo \u00c1ngeles, as well as a trio with Marcelo von Schultz and Pablo Vazquez, and another with Joe Moffett and Michael Foster, all to critical acclaim. His work as a pianist showcases his diverse range of experiences, encompassing classical, jazz, and free improvisation studies, while incorporating contemporary piano performance practices and preparations. The result is a singular voice that Bruce Gallanter (Downtown Music Gallery) asserts \u201chas steadily grown into one of the most adventurous pianists on the scene\u2026His prepared piano work is in a class of its own.\u201d His compositions employ notational strategies to broaden the manner in which sounds are created and the ways in which musicians interact using traditional notation, textual instruction, and visuals\/graphics. He has written pieces ranging from solo piano to full studio orchestra, receiving numerous commissions. Over the past decade, he has appeared on dozens of albums and performed at venues such as Roulette in Brooklyn, NY, Experimental Sound Studio in Chicago, IL, Bemis Center in Omaha, NE, and Cave 12 in Geneva, Switzerland.<\/p>\n
