- Notes: Amy X Neuburg (voice, electronics) and the Paul Dresher ensemble premiere new works by Lisa Bielawa, Jay Cloidt, Conrad Cummings, Paul Dresher, Fred Frith, Guillermo Gdog Galindog, Carla Kihlstedt, Amy X Neuburg, Ken Ueno and Pamela Z. Neuburg and Dresher commissioned 10 diverse composers to create songs inspired by the ideas of Diane Arbus: to portray the here and now in all its glory and grit, beauty and banality. Each composer found or created a photograph or series of images — ranging from intimate self portraits to everyday household items to stark landscapes — that spoke to him or her in this regard, and used the images as inspiration for the music. Or sometimes the other way around.
