Artist talk: Marja Ahti
Marja Ahti discusses her compositional practice as a way of exploring the world, tracing her philosophy of listening and connection through recent solo and collaborative works, including "Touch This Fragrant Surface of Earth," which she premieres Saturday, as well as "Tender Membranes" (2023), "A Coincidence is Perfect, Intimate Attunement," with Judith Hamann (2022) and "Still Lives" (2021). Marja reviews the interplay of chance and intent in her music, the poetry of ordinary sounds, and her use of electronic and instrumental timbres and tunings.
This talk takes place in Cobb Hall, Room 425, just outside the Renaissance Society's gallery on the fourth floor.
Co-presented by the Renaissance Society and Lampo.
