The late American composer Ingram Marshall pioneered the use of tape delay, and later, digital delay, as part of the architecture of a composition. His works often incorporated post-Minimalism, ambient electronic effects, and echoes of Indonesian gamelan music, along with the occasional nod to Beethoven or Sibelius. Many had a dark, nocturnal aspect, which led to the use of his piece “Fog Tropes” in the Martin Scorsese film Shutter Island.
Marshall died this spring at the age of 80, and on October 21, musicians and colleagues will gather to perform some of his electroacoustic works: guitarist Benjamin Verdery, pianist Timo Andres, electric violinist Todd Reynolds, pianist Sarah Cahill, oboist Libby van Cleve, and conductor Raquel Acevedo Klein with members of the Metropolis Ensemble; the event will be hosted by John Schaefer.
