Concert in Bohemian National Hall, NYC, by Martin Janácek and Phill Niblock, with Byron Westbrook, guitar and Petr Kotik, flute.

The concert will take place in Club of the Bohemian National Hall, 321 East 73 street New York, U.S.A. on 4th March 2010, 7.30 pm.

These two artists met thanks to Milos Vojtechovsky, who organised nearly a decade of Hermit symposia in Plasy, Czech Republic, since 1992. Martin Janácek played together with Michael Northam and Michael Delia at Experimental Intermedia studio, New York, organised by Phill Niblock in 2002.

The process of Martin Janácek - he is using self made sound objects (presented recently at Guthman International New Music Instrument Competition in Atlanta ). Together with effects, looping and field recordings, which he finds fascinating and he keeps recording them for years. He creates an intersection among inner imaginative space and outer world of sounds, surrounding and inspiring all of us. artlist.cz/  then enter Janácek Martin in search box byronwestbrook.com    phillniblock.com     experimentalintermedia.org
