Shi-An Costello performs the playful and vibrant masterpiece Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano. The Sonatas and Interludes, a cycle of twenty pieces by American musician John Cage, was written in the late 1940s for “prepared piano,” the placing of resonant objects on and in the piano in order to manipulate the instrument’s tonal and percussive qualities. Shi-An Costello, an active proponent of Cage’s work, has previously performed Dance Music for Elfrid Ide, Dream, Four Dances, HPSCHD,  In a Landscape, Music of Changes, Six Melodies, Suite for Toy Piano, Two⁵, Waiting and 4’33”. The evening also includes a new work by composer Danny Clay (dclaymusic.com). Clay’s work is deeply rooted in curiosity, collaboration, and the sheer joy of making things with people of all ages and levels of artistic experience.
