Ikue Mori & William Winant

Saturday, January 21, 2023 Programmed by Diego Villalobos for The Wattis Institute Hosted by The Lab at Gray Area, San Francisco This inter-generational performance event brings together artists in different stages of their career, several of whom have close ties to the San Francisco Bay Area. The first set is a performance by Ikue Mori, on electronics, and William Winant, on percussion instruments. The second is a solo performance by the Italian drummer Valentina Magaletti (Vanishing Twin). The evening concludes with a performance by the sister duo NOMON. Each of these artists engage and complicate the legacies of Avant-Garde music by remaining on the margins of the experimental and by constantly pushing the limits of what’s sonically possible within their instruments. These performances take place on the occasion of the exhibition Drum Listens to Heart at The Wattis Institute. Ikue Mori arrived to New York in 1977 and subsequently became the drummer of the iconic No Wave band DNA. She later started incorporating drum machines in her music practice and moved on to using her computer as an instrument to blend sonic and visual space. William Winant is a percussionist and educator who, during his 40+ year career, has collaborated with composers such as John Cage, Iannis Xenakis, Barbara Monk Feldman, Wendy Reid, Frank Zappa, Roscoe Mitchell, Anthony Braxton, Hi-Kyung Kim, James Tenney, Terry Riley, Cecil Taylor, George Lewis, Joan LaBarbara, Yo-Yo Ma, Lou Harrison, John Zorn, Bun-Ching Lam, Gordon Mumma, Alvin Lucier, and Wadada Leo Smith, several of whom have written pieces specifically for him. He has recorded and toured worldwide and teaches at Mills College and UC Santa Cruz. Valentina Magaletti is a drummer, percussionist and composer whose practice has been characterized for its constant experimentation with new materials and sounds. In addition to her solo work, she is currently a member of Vanishing Twin and Tomaga, where she explores a wide range between conventional jazz drumming and experiments with field recordings and drone sounds. NOMON is a percussion and electronic music duo composed of sisters Shayna and Nava Dunkelman. After spending years apart working on their own, Shayna and Nava came together in 2018 to form NOMON. Born and raised in Tokyo to an Indonesian mother and an American father, the sisters became multi-instrumentalists performing alongside their mother, a musician and composer active in Asia and the Middle East. NOMON's music is as visual as it is aural, and their performances have a physicality and an immersive choreographic quality, while the sounds combine electronic soundscapes and intricately composed percussion parts. Drum Listens to Heart is curated by Anthony Huberman and organized by Diego Villalobos, with assistance by Katherine Jemima Hamilton and Meghan Smith. https://www.thelab.org/projects/2023/...
