Lia Kohl / Zachary Good / Alrich - Garrett - Holladay

Tuesday March 10 * doors at 7, show at 7:30 * $15-25 * TICKETS

Lia Kohl is a composer and sound artist based in Chicago. Trained as a cellist, she also incorporates synthesizers, field recordings, toy instruments and radios into her work, searching for a balance between virtuosity and curiosity. She gravitates towards sound practices which reveal and speak to their time and place: field recording, improvisation, radio broadcast and transmission. She often focuses on mundane or pedestrian sounds – sounds which often go unnoticed or under-documented, searching for the profound, unknown, and beautiful in everyday life.

Zachary Good is a Chicago-based clarinetist, chamber musician, composer, and music educator. Good’s music meticulously explores the contrapuntal and harmonic possibilities of quiet two-note multiphonics on the clarinet, creating the illusion of multiple clarinetists playing simultaneously. His music is quietly virtuosic, inspired by the intricacies of the clarinet and a love for Baroque nuance and form.

Claire Alrich , Layne Garrett, and Aquiles Holladay will present a first-time collaboration. Claire Alrich is a multidisciplinary artist living in Washington DC. A trained dancer, Claire’s art practice centers the body and the somatic experience even as it moves across mediums to include: installation, dance production, 2-D art, and sculpture. Layne Garrett is an improvising musician and instrument builder based in Washington DC. He works with prepared guitars, found objects, and self-built instruments. Aquiles Holladay is a graduate of George Mason University with a BA in Dance and has performed with various dance organizations in the DMV.
