Experience the debut of Organum Mechanicum, a groundbreaking new work for player pipe organ by composer Mike Leibowitz, created in close collaboration with engineer Sean O’Donnell. Inspired by the radical temporal and rhythmic experiments of Conlon Nancarrow’s Studies for Player Piano, the piece, conceived specifically for the machine as interpreter, embraces a level of complexity that transcends the physical limits of human performance Following the performance, Leibowitz and O’Donnell will lead a panel discussion exploring their collaborative process, from compositional design and mechanical constraints to the creative possibilities unlocked by merging musical imagination with engineering innovation. This project was made possible by support from The Musical Fund Society. This event is now standing room only. Limited seats may become available on the day of the event.
