Past Events

Artists-In-Residence 2016

Leila Bordreuil: Piece for Cello and Double Bass Ensemble

Leila Bordreuil opens her 2016 Residency with the premiere of Piece for Cello and Double Bass Ensemble. A new work, the piece overly amplifies all instruments in order to make corporal micro-gestures and hushed overtones audible to the human ear.

Oren Ambarchi / Zeena Parkins & Brian Chase

First Unitarian Congregational Society

ISSUE Project Room's Fall 2016 season opens at the First Unitarian Congregational Society in Brooklyn Heights with Oren Ambarchi solo, and a duo set by Zeena Parkins & Brian Chase. Known for his deft and exploratory instrumental approaches, Ambarchi has been a central driver of extended sonic investigation.

Peter Evans & Joe McPhee

Focusing mainly on the combination of Joe McPhee's pocket trumpet and Peter Evans' piccolo trumpet, the pair explores a universe of sound with tiny instruments; noise, melody and silence weave together in an intense yet unhurried conversation Saturday, August 13th at 8pm at ISSUE’s 22 Boerum Place theater.

Lee Ranaldo and Leah Singer perform Sight Unseen on June 30th, with installation hours on July 1st and 2nd. The duo have worked together since 1991 with film and music in a live setting, engaging in performances that explore how sound and image interact, with elements of chance embraced.

Artists-In-Residence 2015

Lea Bertucci

For her third and final show as an ISSUE Artist-in-Residence, Lea Bertucci will premiere new works for voice, tape and electronics at ISSUE’s 22 Boerum Theater.
