Two New Releases & A Premier Performance
Two new releases out this month:
Eli Winter – Ghost Notes – Longform Editions (Digital)
Ghost Notes premier performance will take place at Bond Chapel (1025 E. 58th St.), Chicago, IL, on November 3rd, 2024. Click HERE to RSVP for free.
Eli Winter is a writer, composer, and self-taught guitarist based in Chicago. Reaching across technical styles and musical idioms, Winter has developed a practice rooted in listening and collaboration, drawing inspiration from luminaries like fellow Houstonian Pauline Oliveros, his compatriots across Chicago’s jazz scene and beyond, and a host of guitar heroes. In his evolving work Ghost Notes, Winter explores new compositional methods, collaging and sculpting a bank of samples reaching back across years of recordings created with friends and fellow travelers, from studios to living rooms. This ensemble performance in Bond Chapel assembles a group of musicians who appeared on the original recordings, playing through the new works live as compositions for the first time and taking them as launchpads for further improvisation.
Presented in partnership with Experimental Sound Studio.
The 2024-2025 Music Series is generously supported by a grant from the University of Chicago Women’s Board
