CCRMA Presents: Composition Forum – Erin Gee

February 5 @ 1:00 am - 3:00 am

The CCRMA Graduate Composition Forum presents guest composer Erin Gee, who will speak about her Mouthpiece series.
In Mouthpieces, the voice is used as an instrument of sound production rather than as a vehicle of identity; linguistic meaning is not the voice’s goal. The vocal text is often based on linguistic structure – vowel-consonant formation and the principle of the allophone – and is relatively quiet, to decentralize the voice and merge it with the instrumental sound-world.
Erin Gee will perform excerpts from and discuss form, phonetics, and the concept of the “super-mouth” in the Mouthpiece series, and conclude with recent works influenced by environmental conservation.
