Music to Another City (2016)
Fan Letters has created an open instrumentation musical performance for a bus trip that uses landmarks and highway infrastructure as the basis for a score. Performers follow a series of notated and graphic instructions that respond to the passing outside environment. Both the duration of individual cues and the length of the composition as a whole are determined through spatial relations and geographic stimuli. This work will be performed on March 5th onboard a Chinatown bus bound for Boston and March 19th on a bus heading to Baltimore.
On March 5th Fan Letters will be joined by musicians Elizabeth LoPiccolo (flute), Rhys Ziemba (melodica), and Jon Myers (melodica).
On March 19th Fan Letters will be joined by musician Nico Hedley (harmonium)
