SONG INSTALLATION (MECHANICAL INSTRUMENTS BY NICK YULMAN)

For the opening night of the Uncaged Toy Piano Festival, Nick Yulman will fill the DiMenna Center’s Benzaquen Hall with  ‘Song Installation’, an array of digitally controlled mechanical instruments, creating an immersive listening environment for listeners to explore. These musical automata will accompany disembodied voices emanating from radios, and perform a musical program that ranges from tightly choreographed pop songs to textural soundscapes that move around the room like shifting weather patterns.
