The second creation in the Piece by Piece series comes from \;multi-talented and erudite couple\, saxophonist/composer/producer Nick Roth and vocalist/photographer/composer Olesya Zdorovetska.
\nThe pair have been involved together in some of the most exciting projects in experimental music over the last number of years\, with flavours of improvisatory\, jazz\, and folk musics\, including Yurodny\, The Water Project\, and Sefiroth.
\n\nNick Roth is a saxophonist\, composer\, producer and educator. His work explores the liberation of improvisation from composition\, the impact of nature on technology and a \;contemporary interpretation of traditional music. A fascination with pattern\, \;cycle \;and structure has led to ongoing \;conversations \;with mathematical biologists\, forest canopy ecologists \;and hydrologists\, seeking \;a conception of music as translative epistemology. Simultaneously subsumed by an insatiable appetite for \;literature\, his compositions investigate the philosophical impact of poetry and the symbiotic resonance of words as sound and \;text. A curious predisposition and a steadfast \;refusal to accept the existence of boundaries \;between the real and the imaginary has led to collaborations with an array \;of \;international performers\, composers\, choreographers\, directors\, visual artists\, \;festivals\, poets and ensembles. Nick is artistic director of \;Yurodny\, \;a founding member of the \;Water Project \;and \;a \;partner at \;Diatribe Records\, \;Ireland&rsquo\;s leading independent record label for new music. His work is represented by the \;Contemporary Music Centre \;(CMC) and the \;Association of Irish Composers \;(AIC).
\n\n\;This will be streamed on Triskel&rsquo\;s Facebook page and IMC&rsquo\;s YouTube channel.
\n\nIn the Piece by Piece series\, each artist&rsquo\;s input performance will influence or inspire the next performance in this musical chain. Piece by piece\, artists will create new improvised work\, based on the preceding work. Improvising musicians are uniquely skilled at interpretation and spontaneous creation allowing for fresh creation of the highest calibre.
\n\nEnjoy fresh new music\, influenced in real-time\, from world-class Irish improvising musicians\, telling the story of these strange times through new music and live performance\, piece by piece.
