CSTC X IKLECTIK presents 2 nights of live music to pay homage to Phill Niblock, a true visionary whose work transcended boundaries and continues to inspire generations.
Join us on April 25th and 29th at Goldsmiths University in commemorating the life and groundbreaking work of Phill Niblock, the influential New York composer and visual artist whose minimalist creations reshaped the sonic landscape. Niblock, known for his hauntingly beautiful compositions incorporating drones, microtones, and an eclectic array of instruments, passed away in January in Manhattan at the age of 90.
In December 2023, at Goldsmiths, we were in close contact with Phill Niblock and Katherine Liberovskaya to aid with the production of their opera, Hammettlogue, based on the writings of hard-boiled American detective novelist, Dashiell Hammett in view of a premier at Ostrava New Opera Days. The plan was to support the project with video production and a first performance of excerpts of the opera as work-in-progress.
After news of Phill’s death, Atau Tanaka sent his condolences to Katherine, who expressed her desire to continue with the project. This embodied Phill’s spirit to never stop. A work-in-progress performance of a new opera therefore continues – The show must go on! – and has become very organically, the London memorial concert for Phill with a broad community of collaborators, and with it, the presentation of excerpts of his first posthumous work.
Despite having no formal musical training, Niblock rose to prominence as a leading figure in experimental music, founding Experimental Intermedia in the 1970s alongside choreographer Elaine Summers. His loft on Centre Street became a hub for boundary-pushing artists, including luminaries like John Cage and Thurston Moore, who found inspiration in Niblock's immersive performances.
Join us for two evenings of reflection and celebration.
