Olivia Block and Lea Bertucci\u2019s first collaborative release, I Know the Number of the Sand and the Measure of the Sea, <\/i>is\u00a0out on Room40.<\/p>\n

Lea Bertucci<\/strong>\u00a0is an experimental musician whose works revolve around electronic and spatial extensions of instrument and voice. In addition to her longstanding practice performing with woodwinds, she has created compositions for strings, brass, percussion and other instruments, often incorporating electronics and multichannel sound. With an ear toward site-responsiveness and acoustics, her work has expanded toward installation and non-linear presentations of her music, often staged in hyper-resonant spaces.<\/p>\n

Olivia Block<\/strong>\u00a0is a media artist and composer based in Chicago. For nearly 30 years, she has been a pioneering force in the world of experimental music. Her discography is published on Another Timbre,Black Truffle, Erstwhile, Glistening Examples, NNA Tapes, Room40, Sedimental, and Touch, among other labels. She performs live experimental music in festivals and concerts around the world, where at any given concert she might be playing electronic instruments, piano, organ or amplified objects. Block also creates surround sound concerts, sound installations and scores. Her latest solo release, The Mountains Pass (Black Truffle)<\/em>, features Block singing and playing piano.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","tags":[],"class_list":["post-452903","events","type-events","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"\nPERFORMANCE: Lea Bertucci + Olivia Block - New Music USA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/newmusicusa.org\/events\/performance-lea-bertucci-olivia-block\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"PERFORMANCE: Lea Bertucci + Olivia Block - New Music USA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"PERFORMANCE: Lea Bertucci + Olivia Block Wednesday, September 10th, 2025 at 7pm Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center {120 College Street} TICKETS \u2013 $12 General Admission \/ $8 for BMCM+AC members + Students w\/ID GET TICKETS Join us for a duo performance by\u00a0Lea Bertucci\u00a0and\u00a0Olivia Block live at BMCM+AC, on Wednesday, September 10th, 2025, at...
