DESCRIPTION:A program celebrating the joy of collaboration and profound art
 istic journeys: Canadian-Armenian pianist and composer Eve Egoyan performs
  music by Ann Southam and Linda Catlin Smith. Eve has had the privilege to
  share deep personal and professional relationships with these two extraor
 dinary composers over many years. Eve will be performing Ann’s In Retros
 pect which “represents the quiet revisiting of what has gone before” a
 nd Linda Catlin Smith’s Tide Pool\, “small things in a subtle\, gently
  fluctuating sea of sound”.\n\nDuring the past 15 years\, Eve has been e
 xploring how to elegantly expand the expressive possibilities of the acous
 tic piano using cutting-edge technology. Eve will perform her own composit
 ion Ghosts beneath my Fingertips (for Viva) in which she explores the deli
 cacy of Armenian folk tunes (US première) and Surface Tension\, a collabo
 rative interdisciplinary work for optical sensor-interfaced acoustic piano
  and interactive video created by Eve and her husband\, media artist David
  Rokeby. In Surface Tension Eve’s performance is transformed and interpr
 eted by a computer into live visual images projected onto a screen. The vi
 suals respond to a variety of performance parameters including dynamics\, 
 pitch\, the harmonic relation between pitches\, the use of the sustain ped
 al\, and the duration of individual notes. This extends the piano into a v
 isual instrument as well as a musical one. The music is shaped partly by E
 ve’s response to the system's visual response to her playing. All visual
  activity on the screen is directly responsive to Eve’s touch. The resul
 t is an extraordinary integration of sound and image in which neither of t
 hese elements dominate the other.
