Event
Coppice / Anne Guthrie & Richard Kamerman
An evening exploring relationships of wind and electronics features Coppice, Anne Guthrie and Richard Kamerman. Since 2009, Chicago-based duo Coppice has produced works for stage, fixed media, and installation, uncovering sonic textures and compositional ideas peculiar to their unique instrumentation of bellows and electronics. They are joined by Anne Guthrie (horn) and Richard Kamerman (electronics), a compositional collaborative whose long-form works emerged recently with their duo album Sinter (ErstAEU, 2013).

As Coppice, Chicago-based Noé Cuéllar & Joseph Kramer have departed from bellows and electronics to create original compositions, installations, discography, arrangements for performance, and sculptural objects. Drawing from their expanding glossary of study, the duo is currently focused on live repertoire with custom instruments, prepared pump organ, and electronic processes. Recently praised for "blurring sounds and centuries," Coppice music has been released internationally, recently by Pilgrim Talk (US), Triple Bath (GR), Consumer Waste (UK), and Senufo Editions (IT). Coppice has appeared at numerous settings and festivals in Chicago and the US, and internationally in Iceland, Sweden, Greece, and the Netherlands.
Anne Guthrie is an acoustician, composer, and French horn player living in Brooklyn, NY. She studied music composition and english at the University of Iowa and architectural acoustics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, where she is currently a PhD Candidate. Her music combines her knowledge of acoustics and contemporary composition/improvisation. Her electronic music has focused on exploiting the natural acoustic phenomena of unique architectural spaces. Her composition has focused on the orchestration of non-musical sounds, speech in particular. She performs on the French horn as a soloist and with FrauFraulein and Delicate Sen, among others.
Richard Kamerman has been breaking electronics and crashing computers while trying to coax interesting and unpredictable sounds out of them for over a decade. Occasionally, he has also presented himself as a more serious composer of re-performable written music. Keywords: amplification, magnification, obfuscation, systems design, game theory, patterns, human error, accident, failure. Although a firm believer in the axiom that "one man's trash is another man's treasure," he ceased collecting his instruments from piles of junk left on the curb several years ago, fearing he might bring home bedbugs. He additionally runs the small-press music label Copy For Your Records.
