“The spirit of the tour is to look at the broader issues of creativity and the excitement of the new — the excitement of exploring,” Burtner said. Since 1994, TechnoSonics festivals have brought cutting-edge performers and composers to Charlottesville to perform with VCCM talent. This year, the offerings are all home-grown compositions, Shatin said. Her composition for the concert, “Penelope’s Song,” is scored for amplified soprano sax and electronic sounds that are made from the recording and processing of the sounds of a weaver working on her wooden looms. For his composition “Sxueak,” Burtner creates sounds with his metasaxophone, which extends the acoustic saxophone’s sound output by retrofitting it with an onboard computer microprocessor that allows for computer interaction. Coffey’s “Ecce Vox: Noise,” a meditation on the meaning of noise for computer music video, has been featured on the tour.
