Event Description

American composer John Cage was an avid mycologist. Cage often quipped that music and mushrooms have nothing to do with one another except for the fact that they appear next to each other in the dictionary. Experimental Music Unit (EMU) puts the veracity of this statement to the test with Music for Mycologists, a collection of compositions by Paul Walde, Tina Pearson, Czech composer Vaclav Halek and the EMU trio. Music for Mycologists focuses on relationships between music making and mushroom hunting, exposing the sometimes fragile process of discovering sounds of rare and raw beauty that exist just beyond perception.

The Experimental Music Unit is the core ensemble of LaSaM Music, a Victoria organization that has been producing adventurous music events in Victoria since 2008. LaSaM is known for its themed projects informed by aural tradition, improvisation, relationships between the natural world, sound and music, acoustic ecology and the provocative ideas of music practitioners from many times and places. (Dark Listening, In a Large Open Space, And Beethoven Heard Nothing, Music for Natural History, Removing the Demon and others.)
