JON MUELLER + TOM LECKY: ALL COLORS PRESENT
A sound and visual meditation
Jon Mueller’s singular performance idiom is an awe-inspiring display of elegant athleticism, preternatural focus, brute restraint, and ecstatic, monastic reverie. Paired with Tom Lecky’s photographs, it becomes a deliberate focus on form, shape and detail. It requires and demands a state of inner quietude from witnesses. Yet, from this seemingly metronomic exercise blossoms every possible tint and hue of infinite spectral sound.
An apt reference point resides within the broad, decades-spanning catalog of Table of the Elements. Like Tony Conrad’s surging Outside the Dream Syndicate, the aural and conceptual headwinds are real, but the perceived affronts of provocation are not. These works are not endurance challenges, nor are they threadbare minimalist upholstery. They are not obstacles. They are invitations. Within their simplicity and formalism await a sympathetic repose, a comfort. These are gestures of generosity.
Mueller studied jazz drumming with Hal Russell at Columbia College in Chicago, and singing with La Monte Young and Marian Zazeela at the Kirana Center for Indian Classical Music in New York. A prolific performer, he tours extensively and has appeared at festivals and venues throughout the United States, Canada, England, Europe and Japan.
In addition to his solo work, Mueller has collaborated and performed with groups such as Mind Over Mirrors, Volcano Choir, Collections of Colonies of Bees, and Pele. He has also worked with artists including Olivia Block, Aaron Turner, Faith Coloccia, Dawn Springer, Chris Hefner, Jason Kahn, Hal Rammel, Asmus Tietchens, Z’EV, Rhys Chatham, Jarboe, James Plotkin, Duane Pitre, and Raymond Dijkstra. He has released music on renowned labels such as Table of the Elements, Type Recordings, Important Records, Taiga Records, SIGE Records, and American Dreams.

Tom Lecky has worked in photography, music (as Hallock Hill), the book arts, prose and poetry writing, and literary criticism. His creative work concentrates on memory, place, and environment, the work of the imagination, perception, and the intersections of abstraction and representation. He often interweaves appropriated texts and images with his own, evoking a conversation with the history of book design and illustration.
These creative pursuits are linked to Tom’s career as an internationally recognized expert in the field of rare and antiquarian books and manuscripts. He has worked in the auction world – notably in a 17-year run as a specialist and Head of Christie’s New York Books and Manuscripts Department – and as an advisor to collectors and institutions. He is the owner of Riverrun Books, and the founder of the rare book and manuscript appraisal and advisory firm Lecky Art Group. www.tomlecky.com

LIHUEN SIRVENT: GLARE
María Lihuen Sirvent is an Argentinian composer and flutist currently based in Buffalo, New York.
As a composer, she has participated in prestigious music festivals such as June in Buffalo (USA), Impuls (Austria), SoundSCAPE (Italy), and Barcelona Modern (Spain), among others. Her compositions have been featured in these international settings, where she has had the opportunity to collaborate with leading musicians, such as the [Switch~Ensemble] and the Arditti Quartet.
Beyond her compositional activities, she has also contributed to the music festival community in various organizational roles. She has served as a concert producer for the Charlotte New Music Festival (USA), a lecturer at the Tomás Lefever Festival (Chile), and a flutist at ECI La Plata (Argentina).
An active performer, she has been a flutist in a range of ensembles, including “Ensemble Arsis” (specializing in baroque music), “Samba no Pe” (a Brazilian fusion group), “El Enjambre,” and “The Academic Complex” (both new music ensembles). Her performances span diverse musical genres.
She is also deeply involved in music theory research. Since 2013, she has worked as a research assistant at the National University of La Plata under Dr. Edgardo Rodríguez, collaborating with a team on a project focused on the poetics of Latin American composers from the 1960s onwards. This research aims to deepen the understanding of the musical language and cultural contexts of Latin American composers after the operation of the Di Tella Institute in Buenos Aires.
In recent years, she has been working on music with live electronics that generate interactions between sound and light (including video) employing feedback systems. This path includes her work on designing and building new music instrument, sound devices, and music interfaces.
