Performance

a [time] patterned

1 upcoming performance in New York

Now playing at National Sawdust, *a [time] patterned* arrives as a live electronic performance featuring harpist and composer Lara Somogyi. The piece treats time as material, building repeating figures that accumulate and slip, with the harp’s acoustic grain pushed through contemporary processing. In a city where new-music venues often double as laboratories, its NYC appearance reads less like a premiere event than a document of ongoing scene-making. Its most interesting choice is its restraint, letting pattern—not narrative—do the work.
