Environs XI: Alex Baiz Perry / Leni Kreienberg / Paul Sakai, Dream Princess

Alex Baiz Perry is a piano and synth artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Alex weaves together his background as a pianist with a current practice of modular synthesis. Drawing on inspiration from jazz, classical, and electronic music, Alex improvises long-form ambient soundscapes with active textural dynamics.

Leni Kreienberg is a composer, performer, and improviser based in New York, originally from Albany. Leni’s work uses electronics to create and extend instruments–including the voice–and imagine relationships between objects, people, machines, locations, and the sounds they create.

Paul Sakai is a Yonsei, Japanese American drummer and friction percussionist based in Brooklyn, NY. Born in Berkeley, CA and raised as a part of the international community in South East Asia as a Third Culture Kid, his work is improvisatory, highly collaborative and largely focuses on the spaces between people: place, self, family and cultural story.
