Living Sound Lab
About
The Living Sound Lab is a modular, collaborative large ensemble dedicated to music that navigates the boundary between composition and improvisation. Operating with a reductive aesthetic, the group functions as a creative laboratory; members meet monthly to workshop new scores, perform works by outside composers, and exchange ideas over a shared meal. The ensemble was founded to both explore the dynamics of large-group minimalism and to cultivate and foster community of like-minded musicians.
LSL members and occasional participants include: Zosha Warpeha (hardanger fiddle), Jonathan Moritz (tenor and soprano saxophones), Erica Dicker (violin), Sean Ali (double bass), Eli Wallace (piano), Laura Cocks (flute), Lester St Louis (cello), Nathaniel Morgan (alto saxophone), Sam Kulik (trombone), Kenny Warren (trumpet), Flin van Hemmen (percussion), Henry Fraser (double bass), Carlo Costa (vibraphone, percussion), Joe Moffett (trumpet), Barry Weisblat (electronics), Madison Greenstone (clarinet, contrabass clarinet), Tizia Zimmermann (accordion), Drew Wesely (acoustic guitar), Steven Long (piano, harmonium, lute-harpsichord), Anna Webber (tenor saxophone, flute), Dan Peck (tuba), Kenneth Jiménez (double bass), Sam Weinberg (alto and tenor saxophones), Eric Wubbles (piano), Kyle Motl (double bass), Morgan Evans-Weiler (violin)
