About this listen
Electroacoustic composer, improviser, and harpist Zeena Parkins is a pioneer of contemporary harp practices, making use of extended techniques, object preparations, and electronic processing. In her compositions, Parkins utilizes collections, recombination, historic proximities, geography, and movement. On Night 3 of this year’s Other Minds Festival, Parkins will perform her new work Modesty of the Magic Thing with percussionist William Winant. On the podcast, we talk about Parkins’ early experiments with the harp, electrifying the instrument, and her new work inspired by the drawings of the American visual artist Jay DeFeo.
Music: “Pink Cup by Day,” “The Very Tissue of Falling Columns,” “Pink Cup by Night,” “Figure to Figure,” and “Larkspur” from Modesty of the Magic Thing by Zeena Parkins, performed by Zeena Parkins and William Winant (Tzadik)
