Panel Discussion and Performance

In conjunction with Miller Theatre's Composer Portrait of Iannis Xenakis, a consortium of artists and experts join together for a panel discussion focusing on the interdisciplinary connections between his music and his related work as a mathematician, architect, physicist, and political activist. Percussionist Steven Schick performs the early percussion masterpiece Psappha followed by a conversation with panelists including composer David Lang; musicologist and Xenakis biographer Sharon Kanach; and Mark Wigley, Dean of Columbia's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation. Arts journalist and scholar Lara Pellegrinelli will moderate.
