Christopher Tignor - "Bleeding Past The Edges" Record Release Show + Julia Kent
About This Event
Christopher Tignor presents a record-release show for Bleeding Past The Edges at Public Records, performing his electro-acoustic violin work that makes computers coexist with acoustic instruments in a live setting. The bill also features Julia Kent; Tignor has composed and recorded string arrangements for This Will Destroy You, John Congleton, Keith Kenniff and Lymbyc Systym.
About Bleeding Past The Edges
“Bleeding Past The Edges” arrives at Public Records as a record-release performance led by composer and violinist Christopher Tignor, working in electro-acoustic idioms where live strings and computer processes share the same space. Julia Kent joins the bill, extending the program’s attention to bowed sound and slow-moving harmony. The work sits in the lineage of New York’s post-minimal and experimental music scenes, presented in a venue that has become a regular site for that continuum. Its quiet argument is that technology isn’t an effect here; it is a second instrument with agency.
