Marking the centenary of David Tudor’s birth, this concert celebrates one of the most radical and influential figures of postwar experimental music through a multifaceted evening of sound, dance, performance, and reflection. Featuring a realization of Rainforest IV, a program of piano works written for Tudor and performed by Roger Admiral, a contextual talk by Tudor scholar You Nakai, and a dance performance choreographed by Jen Mesch set to Tudor’s Toneburst, the program illuminates Tudor’s enduring legacy as a composer, pianist, and architect of handmade electronic noise instruments—revealing a body of work that continues to challenge how we listen, perform, and inhabit sound.
