    About CIANI/ORKEST

    CIANI/ORKEST brings Suzanne Ciani back to New York in a format that foregrounds her long-running work with synthesis and spatial sound. At Public Records, she and KamranV present a quadraphonic vinyl listening session, punctuated by conversation moderated by Jessica Hundley. Ciani’s 1970s studio practice helped normalize the synthesizer as an instrument in American music, and her return in a dedicated listening room reads like a quiet NYC chapter in that history. The program treats electronic sound as a physical architecture, not a backdrop.
