About the work
《Summer Morning Rain》is a Max/MSP-assisted composition for Piano, Soundscape, and Computer-Generated Sound (stereo, surround, 5.1 or ~8 channels). This work was influenced by Dr. Jean Eichelberger Ivey's《Skaniadaryo》for Piano and Tape (1976). (Dr. Jean Eichelberger Ivey founded the Electronic Music Studio of the Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University in the late 60'.)
In 《Summer Morning Rain》 the pianist improvises in the spirit of 《Skaniadaryo》, then uses Max/MSP to develop contradictory voices in real-time. Live and processed piano together achieve a new composition using modern technology to convey the concepts of the older work: a contemporary reworking of an historical electronic music composition. The composer hopes that with this new work, the spirit and context of early electronic music will be continued and preserved.
