We use our bodies and minds to craft something. We direct\, or are directed. We act inside of a system to create something larger than we could alone. As time moves forward and progress is made\, things are created to replace people. Machines that work better and faster than we do. Is this exploitative? Is something sacrificed? Do we become lost in the work? As The Assembly Line\, we try to find the lines that divide man and machine\, progress and regression\, humans and labour. The Mechanical Being brings together electronics\, acoustics\, automation\, and manual work in a spirit of cooperation. Spanning both film and music\, the programme presents a physical dialogue that happens between man and contraption. The interfacing that happens every day\, yet yields no further understanding between the two\, beyond what already exists. In The Garden of Earthly Delights\, live sound strives to communicate with film of the past. There will be a 10 minute dialogue and Q&A session following the final performance. \nTICKETING INFORMATION • Free admission. • All event information is correct at time of print. • Out of respect for other concertgoers\, no children under 6 years of age will be allowed admission.

A long tradition of comparing chamber music (especially string quartets) to artful conversation reflects the intricate sense of interaction among the instrumental parts. Klorman imagines chamber compositions as a game in which each instrumental part may be understood as an individual player or character\, capable of competing with\, seducing\, deceiving\, or outwitting the others as the music unfolds. \nEdward Klorman is a music theorist specializing in tonal music and in the relationship between analysis and performance. His first book\, Mozart’s Music of Friends: Social Interplay in the Chamber Works (Cambridge\, 2016)\, draws on historical concepts of musical sociability and agency to develop new approaches to the analysis of sonata form and phrase rhythm. \nEdward Klorman has published and presented widely on topics in the performance of eighteenth-century chamber music. He currently serves as co-chair of the Performance and Analysis Interest Group of the Society for Music Theory. Prior to his appointment at the Schulich School of Music at McGill University\, he previously taught music theory\, viola\, and chamber music at The Juilliard School\, Manhattan School of Music\, and Queens College (CUNY). As violist\, he has performed as guest artist with the Borromeo\, Orion\, and Ying Quartets and the Lysander Trio\, and he is featured on two albums of chamber music from Albany Records. \nThis event is presented as part of Performers(‘) Present 2019: Telling Stories. \nABOUT THE SYMPOSIUM\nNarratives – whether historical\, political\, or musical; whether fact or fiction – are inextricably bound to the ways we experience the world\, and the art that translates these experiences. \nIn the decade since we began hosting the triennial Performers(‘) Present symposium\, artistic research has been undergoing rapid and ground-shifting transformations\, with the performer’s voice becoming ever more present.
