This extended 50-minute work for 14 musicians
and conductor, was composed by Laura Andel, premiered by the laura andel
orchestra, and recorded live by Elliott Sharp in October 2002 in New York
city. SomnambulisTwas
then released under the Canadian label
Red Toucan Records in April
2003. And now, we celebrate this cd release as part of the Roulette
Concert Series at The Flea Theatre. In SomnambulisT,
the conductor and performers have both a compositional and improvisatory
role. Part of the music is created and formed through the act of conducting,
combining actions and sounds that are both well-defined and open. Listen
here to SomnambulisT

/ recording production
SomnambulisT
is Laura Andel's work for 14 musicians and conductor. It was premiered
on October 25, 2002 at the Consulate of Argentina. Check
out the musicians a few minutes before going on stage! SomnambulisT
walks the fine line between real and surreal in the space and time between
subtle and subversive. (Curious of what's behind
SomnambulisT?)
