WILD

Lorelei Ensemble collaborated with composers Angélica Negrón, Tina Tallon, and Pamela Z on the creation of three new works for treble vocal ensemble, which together make up WILD. Testing the limits of modern technology, layering soundtracks of spoken language and the natural world and merging poetry with music, WILD is about controlled borders and vast landscapes, freedom and constraint, clarity and distortion and the ways we use organic and artificial intelligence to resist and embrace wildness in ourselves and the world around us. During the workshop performance, audiences experienced the creative process up close and had a chance to ask questions about how AI and other responsive technologies function in music creation, what it is like to interact with them as a performer, and their implications for live performance.
