David Behrman: Runthrough

David Behrman’s Runthrough is performed by Behrman, crys cole and Cleek Schrey (who recently performed alongside Behrman in April of this year). Behrman describes Runthrough as a piece that requires no special performance skills other than the ability to turn knobs and aim flashlights, making this early work of interactive live electronic music as playable by non-musicians as musicians.

David Behrman: Long Throw

David Behrman performs Long Throw with Joseph Kubera, John King and Cleek Schrey. The piece was one of three works by three composers commissioned by the Merce Cunningham Dance Company as music for the 2007 dance, “eyeSpace.” Long Throw makes use of 21st Century digital technology -- music software and sound sensors -- and has performance roles for the core musicians of the Company in 2007: Christian Wolff, Takehisa Kosugi, John King and Stephan Moore.
