Field Recordings

Recognized worldwide for their ultra-dynamic live performances and recordings of today’s most innovative music, this six-member amplified ensemble has consistently forged a distinct category-defying identity, freely crossing the boundaries between classical, jazz, rock, world and experimental music, and traveling into uncharted territories. The ensemble’s ongoing multi-media project, Field Recordings, showcases commissioned works by 14 (and counting!) composers, channeled through the “unstoppable” Bang on a Can All-Stars. “...the most radical notion that has taken root thanks to Bang on a Can is that of success through generosity, with composers attending each other’s concerts, playing each other’s music and founding record labels that foster new voices. — Corinna da Fonseca-Wollheim, New York TimesGeneral Admission: $20Tickets for seniors, youth and all students are free.

Performance at Ullem Campus Farm: Saturday, Sept. 22 • 10 a.m.–3:30 p.m.

Raindate: Sunday, Sept. 23 • 10 a.m.–2:30 p.m. 

Colin Tucker and Ethan Hayden, co-curators of the Buffalo-based music collective Null Point, will lead DePauw students in performance of David Dun’s site-responsive work PLACE (1975), beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 22 with a rain date of Sunday, Sept. 23. This 10-section, modular performance-installation invites participants and observers alike to experience and interact with the sounds of an outdoor environment — in this case, DePauw University’s new Ullem Campus Farm — using different combinations of instruments, voices and audio gear. 

Null Point poses the importance of PLACE through a series of open-ended questions. The 12-acre farm site, with its combination of cultivated land, buildings, meadow, path, and wooded surroundings, offers a rich ecological network for this exploration.

Fresh produce from the farm also will be available to sample during the performance, which will take place over several hours from late morning into afternoon, with breaks. Audience members are invited to experience the piece in their own way: stroll by, drop in and out, spend all day immersing yourself in the site and its sounds, perhaps with a picnic or book. 

If you go, the Ullem Campus Farm is located between DePauw's athletic facilities and the Nature Park, behind the Indoor Tennis and Track facility. If traveling by car or bicycle, take Jackson to Walnut Street, turn left into the farm immediately after the railway crossing and follow the signs. 

 

All are welcome to attend this free family-friendly event, which is funded by the DePauw School of Music and the Environmental Fellows Program.

The DePauw University Orchestra begins its academic year with a festive tone, opening Sunday’s concert with “Roman Carnival Overture” by French composer Hector Berlioz, based on musical themes from his opera “Benvenuto Cellini.” Maurice Ravel’s “Une barque sur l'océan” (A Boat on the Ocean) provides an impressionistic contrast before the program’s grand finale: a unique version (and one of the first) of Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky’s masterful “Pictures at an Exhibition,” arranged by Mikhail Tushmalov, a student of the great Russian orchestrator and composer Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Music director Orcenith Smith will conduct. 

General admission: $5; seniors, youth and all students: free.
