Somewhere Here in This World

Somewhere Here in This World is a music ceremony created by 30 percussionists, each with a pair of wooden claves, in a large circle surrounding an audience. Individual sounds ricochet around the performance space in conversation with each other and other ambient noises

This piece will be premiered at Make Music New York in June 2013 by an ensemble led by Joe Bergen.

ABOUT ME

I have worked for 15 years as a Teaching Artist, Cultural Producer, Education Administrator and Professional Development Facilitator. I am interested in treating performances as opportunities to learn and creating learning situations that feels like authentic artistic experiences. Having worked as a facilitator and consultant with some of the foremost arts education institutions in the United States, I am excited by the opportunities to help artists and institutions develop their platforms for engaging others in learning. --Aaron
