Ben LaMar Gay

Composer, multi-instrumentalist, and lyricist Ben LaMar Gay creates brilliant electro-acoustic collages in which sound, color, and space interact through the prism of folklore. Building on an improvisational foundation, his music expands beyond genre limits. At the Pierre Boulez Saal, he will lead an ensemble of his international family of collaborators in a program that includes new compositions from his ongoing series The Manipulation of Lines and Breff.
