SUMMARY:Jen Shyu – Projecting Tradition into the Future in Three Solo Works
DESCRIPTION:Jen Shyu will offer an inside look into her process behind research\, composition\, and improvisation that led to her three of her solo ritual-theater-music works: Solo Rites: Seven Breaths (2014) directed by Garin Nugroho; and Nine Doors (2017) and Zero Grasses: Ritual for the Losses (2019)\, both directed by Alexandru Mihail. These works were inspired by 20+ years of study of traditional music and dance from five countries\, including epic storytelling and East Coast shaman music from South Korea; music from East and West Timor; Hengchun Folk Song with moon lute from Taiwan; Ledhekan\, which combines Javanese dance with improvisational singing from Indonesia; and the “speaking-the-song” or “katari” with Japanese biwa\, the rare 4-stringed instrument originally used by monks and priests. \nEvent Speaker\nJen Shyu\, Composer \nEvent Information\nFree and open to the public; RSVP required via Eventbrite. \nPlease contact the group organizer\, Jessie Cox at jc5036@columbia.edu with any questions. The Comparing Domains of Improvisation series is sponsored by the Presidential Scholars in Society and Neuroscience program at Columbia University. \n
