• Alan Licht
In de voorbije decennia werkte de Amerikaanse gitarist Alan Licht samen met zowat de hele experimentele muziekwereld, van free jazz legendes (Rashied Ali, Derek Bailey) en elektronica-tovenaars (Fennesz, Jim O'Rourke) tot turntable-grootheden (DJ Spooky, Christian Marclay) en Downtown New York-veteranen (John Zorn, Rhys Chatham, Lee Ranaldo van Sonic Youth). Verder is Licht ook curator en schrijver, o.a. voor The Wire Magazine en New York Sun. Zijn boek Sound Art: Beyond Music, Between Media is een standaardwerk over geluidskunst en was de inspiratie voor de langlopende reeks ‘Beyond Music’ in STUK. In 2024 bracht Licht zijn nieuwste album Havens uit, een dubbel LP met langgerekte gitaarimprovisaties waarin klassieke fingerpicking en abstracte klanktapijten elkaar afwisselen. Een hypnotische trip die hij in STUK live zal brengen.
(English)
Over the past two decades, guitarist Alan Licht has worked with a veritable who's who of the experimental world, from free jazz legends (Rashied Ali, Derek Bailey) and electronic wizards (Fennesz, Jim O'Rourke) to turntable masters (DJ Spooky, Christian Marclay) and veteran Downtown New York composers (John Zorn, Rhys Chatham, Lee Ranaldo from Sonic Youth). Licht is also a curator and writer, including for The Wire Magazine and New York Sun. His book Sound Art: Beyond Music, Between Media is a standard work on sound art and was the inspiration for STUK's long-running “Beyond Music” series. In 2024, Licht released his latest album Havens, a double LP of elongated guitar improvisations in which classical fingerpicking and abstract soundscapes alternate. A hypnotic trip that he will perform live in STUK.
