San Francisco Tape Music Festival | Fort Mason

Submitted by the Event Organizer

America’s only festival devoted to the performance of audio works projected in three-dimensional space, The San Francisco Tape Music Festival returns this weekend—It’s cinema for your ears.

The festival features three distinct evenings of classic audio art and new fixed media compositions by 20 local and international composers.

The collective is one of the major proponents of live sound projection, and the members, along with guest composers, shape the sound live over a pristine surround system consisting of 16+ high-end loudspeakers while the audience is seated in complete darkness. It’s a unique opportunity to experience music forming – literally – around you.

TONIGHT’S PROGRAM:

• Mauricio Kagel – Antithèse (1962)
• Jean-Claude Risset – Sud (1985)
