Volker Goetze

Experience a spaced composition for 31 Performing Artists

Staten Island Museum

The composition are placed notes organized in space creating a musical tunnel or spiral with specific soundscape concepts - one parameter being the cardinal points: lighter keys in the south, darker keys and modes in the north, ascending sounds in the east and descending sounds in the West. The musicians can walk freely in space and improvise with the notes. The second composition is creating a tunnel where the audience can walking through hearing a melody in the speed they walk through the tunnel created by the performers. A third composition will position the musician in a spiral and the audience can walk inside or leave the spiral and experience other cords and sounds which are preorganized by imaginary diagonals. The work engages with the audience as it allows them experiencing walking from darker sounds to lighter sounds, from minor to major sounds, from descending to ascending sounds.This program is made possible by the New York City Artist Corps.T-Shirts generously provided by Pop Threads.https://popthreads.comPerforming ArtistsKurt Bacher (Saxophone)Emma Burge (Violin)Katie Down (Flutes)Kevin Edel (Saxophone)Oran Etkin (Clarinet)Mario Layne Fabrizio (Drums)Ben Feldman (Bass)Henry Fraser (Bass)Phillip Golub (Keyboard)Sipho Kunene (Drums)Zach Layton (Guitar)Jeffrey Lependorf (Flutes)Lara Ngoc-Lan Lewison (Violin)Melissa Lubars (Vocals)Matt Malanowski (Keyboard)Michael Morreale (Trumpet)Michael Mossmann (Trumpet)Dafna Naphtali (Voice)Lee Odem (Saxophones)George Odero (Orutu)AJ Pantaleo (Percussion)Rick Parker (Trombone)Sergio Reyes (Violin)Shawn Rhoades (Trombone)Ray Scro (Baritone Saxophone)Marianne Shaneen (Voice)Kevin Sun (Saxophone)Hans Tammen (Strings)Kenny Warren (Trumpet)Max ZT (Dulcimer)About Volker GoetzeArtist, composer and trumpeter Volker Goetze arrived in New York 20 years ago.
