…all played by ONE

What happens when a musician knows the entirety of the musical ideas and phrases of everyone in their ensemble? When there is perfect omniscience of every gesture and breath? Not just because the music is recorded - made permanent, never changing - but because it was all performed by the same artist?

Cari Shipp, flutist, presents a dynamic program of music for flute chamber music. Utilizing technology, she will be performing all parts herself, playing the featured parts live with her own pre-recorded video and audio accompaniment.

Highlights:
music by living and women composers
alto flute masquerading as a viola and a cello
music for solo piccolo
pieces ranging from 1774-2020
up to five times the sass
