Sub-Nova with Yossi MarChaim

Musica Nova Consort is thrilled to host composer Yossi Mar-Chaim in an evening dedicated to his music. The program for the evening includes two recent electro-acoustic compositions for cello and saxophone which explore the relationship between different live and electronic attitudes; a screening of fragments from the film "The 81th Blow" from 1974 for which Mar-Chaim has written the score, and a piece from the film's music will be played along with a short explanation; 'Mazkeka', a duo for 3 cassette recorder loops and keyboard written with Guido Mar-Chaim, Yossi's son, will conclude the evening.

Yossi Mar-Chaim has written more than 200 pieces for chamber and symphonic ensembles, theatre, film, dance, operas and rock operas. He has worked with Musica Nova during the 1990's and recently again as a composer and performer with his pieces 'Not yet 70' and 'November', as well as at the Piano Lab
