WGXC Discusses Cellist Charles Curtis’s upcoming series ‘Within | Without Limit’

Interview starts at 12:00:00

Tune in for an interview at 4:10 p.m. with Amadeus Julian Regucera, Music Curator at EMPAC, about the upcoming series Within | Without Limit, a series of two solo performances from internationally acclaimed musician Charles Curtis. Tied to both uptown and downtown New York City scenes in the 1980s and noted for his collaborations with composers La Monte Young, Alvin Lucier, and Éliane Radigue, as well as with poetry-rock pioneers King Missile, among others, Curtis’s repertoire spans classical, avant-garde, minimal, noise, and popular genres.

At EMPAC, Curtis performs a listening odyssey of works by Radigue, Carolyn Chen, French medieval composer Guillaume de Machaut, and his own work. The two programs feature delicate yet visceral works that challenge—and reward—the listener, opening up new musical landscapes both outside and within the work.
