Sound Artist Lea Bertucci Transforms and Extends the Saxophone




Soundcheck show

Summary: <p>NYC-based sound artist, sax player, and composer Lea Bertucci uses tape technology, resonant spaces, and sounds that occupy a gray area between music and noise. She augments her alto sax with processing and delay, turning it into a polyphonic instrument, and creates microtonal effects and complex rhythms as she does so. Her latest album is called <a href="https://leabertucci.bandcamp.com/album/resonant-field" target="_blank">Resonant Field</a>; and Lea Bertucci joins us to play two extended pieces, in-studio.</p> <p>Watch the session here: </p> <p>  </p> <p> </p>
