From 1962 to 1969 he taught at Brandeis where he conducted the Brandeis University Chamber Chorus which devoted much of its time to the performance of new music. Since 1970 he has taught at Wesleyan University where he is currently John Spencer Camp Professor of Music. Alvin Lucier has pioneered in many areas of music composition and performance, including the notation of performers' physical gestures, the use of brain waves in live performance, the generation of visual imagery by sound in vibrating media, and the evocation of room acoustics for musical purposes. His recent works include a series of sound installations and works for solo instruments, chamber ensembles, and orchestra in which, by means of close tunings with pure tones, sound waves are caused to spin through space. Lucier performs, lectures and exhibits his sound installations extensively in the United States, Europe and Asia. He has visited Japan twice. In 1988 he appeared on the Abiko Festival in Tokyo and installed

From 1962 to 1970 he taught at Brandeis, where he conducted the Brandeis University Chamber Chorus which devoted much of its time to the performance of new music. Since 1970 he has taught at Wesleyan University. In 1966, along with Robert Ashley, David Behrman and Gordon Mumma, Lucier founded the Sonic Arts Union, for whose concerts he developed numerous live electronic works, exploring echolocation, brain waves, room acoustics and the visual representation of sound. His recent works include a series of installations and works for solo instruments, chamber ensembles, and orchestra in which rhythmic patterns and related spatial phenomena are created by close tunings. Ovals for chamber orchestra was performed at Donaueschingen by the Hilversum Radio Orchestra and, in 2002, Just Before Dark was premiered in Vienna by the Soloists of the Tehran Symphony Orchestra. He recently completed Ever Present for flute, saxophone and piano and Almost New York, for flutist Carin Levine. He is currently working on a collaboration with sculptor Alain Kirili for baritone voice and French Horn, commissioned by Thomas Buckner.

ALVIN LUCIER Chambers A virtually complete collection of composer Alvin Lucier's major works from 1965 to 1977, interspersed with twelve interviews with the composer by Douglas Simon. Each score is written in prose and may be read by musicians as instructions for performance or by general readers as descriptions of imaginary musical activities. In response to Simon's searching questions, Lucier expands on each composition, not only explaining its genesis and development but also revealing its importance to the vigorously experimental American tradition to which Alvin Lucier belongs. Many of his compositions jolt conventional notions of the role of composer, performer, and listener, and the spaces in which they play and listen. His works are scored for an astonishing range of instruments: sea shells, subway stations, toy crickets, sonar guns, violins, synthesizers, bird calls and Bunsen burners. Book OUT OF STOCK Music for Solo Performer The first work in history to use brain waves to generate sound. It was composed during the Winter of 1964-65 with the technical assistance of physicist Edmond Dewan. The first performance was on May 5, 1965, at the Rose Art Museum, Brandeis University with the encouragement and participation of composer John Cage. Since then, it has been performed many times by Alvin Lucier in solo concerts and on tours in Europe and America with the Sonic Arts Union. Item number LUA-R-1; 12" LP record OUT OF STOCK

Alvin Lucier "I use technology for acoustical testing a lot of the time, in much the same way an engineer might. I scan a frequency range with an oscillator, for example, and interface it with some other system ... I drive the system in such a way that the result is both unexpected and clear. I've always been interested in cause and effect when the effects are very surprising." One of the most original pioneers of electronic music, Lucier has broken new ground in many areas of music composition and performance. These have included the notation of performers' physical gestures, the use of brain waves in live performance, the generation of visual imagery by sound in vibrating media, and the evocation of room acoustics for musical purposes. From 1966 - 1976, he performed with Robert Ashley, David Behrman, and Gordon Mumma in the Sonic Arts Union. His work has been performed and his installations shown extensively in the United States, Europe and Asia, including the Abiko Festival (Tokyo), DAAD Kunstler Program (Berlin), at venues in Dehli, Madras, and Bombay ... In October 1994, Wesleyan University honored Lucier with a five-day festival, including collaborations with poet John Ashbery and theater designer Robert Wilson. His book, Chambers

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Alvin Lucier Alvin Lucier (born May 14 ) is a composer of music and sound installations exploring acoustic phenomena, especially resonance , as well as a former member of the Sonic Arts Union along with Robert Ashley , David Behrman, and Gordon Mumma Lucier was born in Nashua, New Hampshire and studied at Yale and Brandeis University and spent two years in Rome on a Fulbright Fellowship Some of his pieces include Music On A Long Thin Wire in which all music is produced by one amplified string and a magnet, Crossings , in which tones played across a steadily rising sine wave produce interference beats, Still and Moving Lines of Silence in Families of Hyperbolas in which the interference tones between sine waves create "troughs" and "valleys" of sound and silence, and Music For Solo Performer , the first piece to use brain waves to produce sound. One of Lucier's best known works is I am sitting in a room , in which Lucier records himself narrating a text, and then plays the recording back into the room, re-recording it. The new recording is then played back and re-recorded, and this process is repeated. Since all rooms have a characteristic resonance (eg. different between a large hall and a small room), the effect is that certain frequencies are emphasised as they resonate in the room, until eventually the words become unintelligible, replaced by the pure resonant harmonies and tones of the room itself. The recited text describes this process in action - it begins "I am sitting in a room, different from the one you are in now. I am recording the sound of my speaking voice...".

The term refers particularly to someone who writes music in some type of musical notation, thus allowing others to perform the music. This distinguishes the composer from a musician who improvises. However, a person may be called a composer without creating music in documentary form, since not all musical genres rely on written notation. In this context, the composer is the originator of the music, and usually its first performer. Later performers then repeat the musical composition they have heard.

Robert Ashley Morton Feldman Philip Glass Alvin Lucier Alvin Lucier in conversation with Thomas Moore I interviewed Alvin Lucier in January, 1983, at Marymount Manhattan College in New York. We spoke prior to a concert of his music at the Music for a New Year festival sponsored by Lovely Music. The beginning of the interview has been lost because of damage to the original tape. The transcript begins in mid-sentence. I would like to thank Mimi Johnson and Laura Fletcher for their assistance with this interview. Alvin Lucier: ...in ways that I suppose I can't explain. You know, when I was in Italy, I had an assignment, a composition assignment, to write a piece on a theme of Monteverdi. You know, the composer, Monteverdi. And I was looking at some works of Monteverdi and I discovered the Vespers of 1610, which has instrumental music in there that is in echo form...the idea of echo...an oboe plays a theme, and then it's echoed in another oboe, in a similar instrument. And I thought that the imitation of echoes in that kind of music, represented on a two-dimensional page, is one thing, but why aren't we making real echoes as they occur in nature? Which means you send your sound perpendicular out away from you, and it reflects off a wall. I mean, it's a real echo instead of a simulated echo. So there was something in the charm of the echo idea that got me interested in making real echoes. And I made a piece called Vespers in 1968, in which players really make sounds that echo off ceilings, walls, floors. And that idea was still an imitation of something else, but a crude imitation of the sound-sending abilities of bats and animals that use sound in a real way, and not in a languagesounds not as language with symbolism, but real sounds that do something. So I got interested in that.
