No Exit Presents: LIGAMENT
- Kent
No Exit welcomes LIGAMENT (vocalist Anika Kildegaard and bassist Will Yager) who will present a program of new works which explore the vast sonic worlds made possible by this duo’s unique instrumentation. Highlights include Zac Fick-Cambria’s machina in which Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun dissents in a capital punishment case; Ruby Fulton’s and if not, why not which reveals the isolating effects of interstate migration on new mothers in early 20th century America; and James Dillon’s A Roaring Flame: a glossolalic summoning, a primordial and macabre incantation. The program will also include works by Amy Beth Kirsten and Katherine Balch. The surprising combination of double bass and voice brings a new and exciting world of sound to the pressing and political pieces on this program.
