Near Speakers Marina Rosenfeld Quest for Minetta Creek Miya Masaoka Eros-Ion Commissioned works World premieres Marina Rosenfeld Miya Masaoka Friday, October 17, 8pm Judson Church 55 Washington Square South $15 / $10 students, seniors, EMF Subscribers EMF commissioned six New York-based composers to create works for New York Soundscape. The goal in the commissions was to create a body of examples for others, not necessarily professionals, to follow. Marina Rosenfeld's Near Speakers , drawing its sounds from what she calls the 'acoustical bleed' of sound devices in crowded spaces, was the third of the commissions to be presented. Miya Masaoka's Quest for Minetta Creek , combining documentary and sound art in a quest to find a creek running under New York's streets in the West Village, was the fourth of the commissioned works to be presented. And composer Michael Schumacher's Eros-Ion , a multimedia work based on industrial sounds in Brooklyn, created in collaboration with video artist Nisi Jacobs, was the fifth commissioned work to be presented.
