This collection of "field recordings" are a view into Hirsch’s multiplicitous at-home practice of generating text. For this recording Hirsch has recorded elements of her current process: improvising text by vocalizing with a multi effects unit as well as speaking/writing with and sans effects in tandem with recordings of Morton Feldman music, specifically Piano With String Quartet (1985), Patterns In A Chromatic Field (1981), and Violin & String Quartet (1985). As a whole, the practice illuminates the various ways of “generating text” across Hirsch’s vocal techniques, unique storytelling, free improvisation, and writing.

Shelley Hirsch & Marcia Bassett
Shelley Hirsch and Marcia Bassett reprise their collaborative performance after a first meeting at the monthly Abasement series earlier in 2018. A compelling amalgamation of Hirsch’s virtuosic command of extended vocal techniques with Bassett’s shimmering, dense, and often dissonant arrangements, the duo yields an expansive sound that weaves freely between their respective practices.
