“Let your body move to the music,” Madonna once sang, and Lisbon-born
Rafael Toral responds to that directive in some of the most radical
ways you’ll see—producing real-time sound with “glove-controlled
computer sinewaves,” for instance. It even looks a bit like voguing.
But the music is wholly experimental, liquid and formless, from
another dimension. Toral employs the gloves and other futuristic
instruments to create “space studies,” and this week’s duo set with
the highly physical percussionist Tatsuya Nakatani will push the work
in new improvisational directions. Philly-based sound sculptors share
the bill, brought to you by the ear-nourishing Bowerbird series." -
