'To call the Pittsburgh Collective a big band is a bit like calling the New York Philharmonic an opera outfit...A new kind of fusion is going on in [their] music, but also, perhaps, a new kind of analysis, in which the origins of jazz -- the fusion music of a century ago -- are being creatively explored.'

Ensemble Ipse:

Ensemble Ipse will present a workshop of Max Giteck Duykers' new opera Both Eyes Open with support from the Brooklyn Arts Council and the Asian American Arts Alliance. With a libretto by acclaimed playwright and filmmaker Philip Kan Gotanda, the piece is a co-production with the Paul Dresher Ensemble and First Look Sonoma. Both Eyes Open is a comment on the internment of Japanese-Americans during WWII, and takes the form of a series of flashbacks and dreams, with mythological characters and a hyper-real electro-acoustic score. In additional to support from New Music USA and the JFunds Commission, the project recently received a generous grant from the National Parks Service's Japanese-American Confinement Sites Program. Another workshop will be presented at the University of California, Berkeley in the fall of 2019, and in 2020 the piece will be premiered across the U.S. with the Paul Dresher Ensemble near several internment camps, now preserved as historic sites.
