About this Event

Legendary NYC improviser/composer and multi-instrumentalist Elliott Sharp performs solo electroacoustic music performed on 8-string guitarbass in celebration of his upcoming book Feedback: Translations From The IrRational, which will be published by Wesleyan University Press, Nov. 2025.

Elliott Sharp leads SysOrk, Orchestra Carbon, Terraplane, and Tectonics and pioneered use of fractal geometry, chaos theory, and genetics in musical composition and interaction. His opera Port Bou premiered October 2014 at Issue Project Room and his suite Tribute: MLK Berlin ’64 opened the 2014 Berlin Jazz Festival. Storm Of the Eye appears on violinist Hilary Hahn’s Grammy-winning album In 27 Pieces, and Turing Test for the Neue Vocalsölisten Stuttgart premiered at the Venice Biennale in 2012. Sharp has been featured at festivals New Music Stockholm, Darmstadt, Donaueschingen, and Au Printemps and is the subject of the documentary film Doing The Don’t. Sharp was awarded the Berlin Prize for Music Composition for 2015; a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2014; a Fellowship from the Center for Transformative Media in 2014. In 2003, he received a Fellowship from the Foundation For Contemporary Art. His collaborators have included Radio-Sinfonie Frankfurt; singer Debbie Harry; Ensemble Modern; Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan; blues legends Hubert Sumlin and Pops Staples; pianist Cecil Taylor; multimedia artists Christian Marclay and Pierre Huyghe; and Bachir Attar, leader of the Master Musicians Of Jajouka.

Presented by Nonsequitur.
