Liel Fishbein is a composer, performer, and poet,
a graduate of the Musrara School of the Arts in Jerusalem.
Drumming from the age of 10, during his years at university,
he began exploring different ways to make his drums produce long tones
and a variety of noise textures, using friction, musical bows,
and electronics, shifting the instrument from its original rhythmic role
to a melodic instrument and noise generator.
After encountering Zen Buddhism and Taoism, Liel developed a compositional language
that uses the nature of the sound objects he works with,
to embody concepts such as emptiness, negative space, nonattachment,
and acceptance, turning the act of listening itself into a meditative practice.
Gretchen Jude is an experimental composer who performs using various instruments,
including voice, koto and shamisen.
Jude studied music at the Sawai Koto Institute in Tokyo as well as Mills College
and University of California, Davis.
Thanks to growing up in the wild state of Idaho, Jude loves nature.
She teaches at the University of Utah and spends her summers in mountains of Niigata.
Kiyomitsu Odai is a composer/improviser born and brought up in Tokyo, Japan.
After receiving a B.A. in law from Waseda University (Tokyo),
he moved to the U.S. and started his artistic career.
As an improviser (piano and computer), he has performed at numerous venues including Hotti Biscotti,
WNUR (Chicago), Muddy Waters (Santa Barbara), Dům kultury Vítkovice (Ostrava, Czech Republic),
Ftarri, and OTOOTO (Tokyo).
Journalist Josef Woodard mentions him as a “striking musically neo-expressionist keyboardist”
in Santa Barbara News-Press.
As a composer, he has adopted multidisciplinary (mathematical, psychoacoustic, linguistic, algorithmic, etc.)
approaches to his own music, pursuing the “transcendental structures” that spiritually overcome the systems within themselves.
He has participated in a number of music festivals and international conferences
including Ostrava Days and ICMC, and worked with both professional and non-professional orchestras;
Janáček Philharmonic Orchestra, for example, featured his Passacaglia di Fibonacci in 2011.
The recording of another orchestral piece of his, Menetekel：「あー、いぬ。アーメン。」,
as well as his own paper on it, was published in the 22nd volume of Leonardo Music Journal in 2012.
He has studied with Don Malone, Hilda Paredes, Roscoe Mitchell, Curtis Roads, and Clarence Barlow.
He holds a Ph.D. in music composition from University of California, Santa Barbara.
