The Valley City State University Music Department is proud to present Echoes & Elements<\/em>, a solo faculty recital by Dr. Katrina Clements, assistant professor of woodwinds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The recital features collaboration with Angela Mircsov, associate professor of art, and Dr. Ozzie Johnson, piano. This unique and immersive performance will take place at the Larry J. Robinson Center for the Arts Performance Hall on Friday, February 28, at 7:30 p.m. The event is free and open to the public with a reception to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blending live clarinet performance with electronic soundscapes and striking visual elements, Echoes & Elements<\/em> explores the connections between music, technology and imagery. The program features contemporary works that incorporate electronic effects, multimedia, and artistic collaborations, creating a dynamic sensory experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The recital begins with Heat it UP!<\/em> by Kay He, a composition inspired by the heat and landscape of the Arizona desert. This is followed with Cacophony<\/em> by Jenni Brandon, a solo clarinet piece using delay pedal effects, accompanied by original acrylic paintings by Mircsov that will be premiered during the performance and on display in the lobby afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The middle of the program includes Through Waters, by Mountains<\/em> by Yao Chen, a work for clarinet and piano with video that evokes the movement of water and rugged mountain landscapes. I\u2019d Known This Place<\/em> by Dan Caputo will use live audio generative animations to explore memory through repeated recollections. The recital will close with an exciting new work for bass clarinet and electronics, Bridges<\/em> by Spencer Brand, exploring the intersection of tangible and virtual connections. Dr. Ozzie Johnson, assistant professor of piano at VCSU, will join Dr. Clements in performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis recital is an opportunity to showcase collaboration between the VCSU music and art departments pushing the boundaries of traditional performance by combining sound with striking visual elements and technology,\u201d says Dr. Clements. \u201cThe audience will experience a fusion of music and art that highlights the beauty of both mediums.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
