B. Concert
Live performance by Svetlana Maras is part of her ongoing practice that utilises variety of physical controllers in a live concert setting that she interprets as a place for experimentation and collective listening. These performances stem partially from her practice as an improviser which reflects in the instrumental use of the setup that she choses to play with. This approach allows versatile sound manipulation in real-time that appropriates playing with the acoustic instruments. Deriving from her compositional practice, is the idea of musical form which is based on a dense network of layers that she works with simultaneously. By having the possibility of micro-structuring sound events in these layers and controlling the development of each of them, acoustic space fills up with multitude of narratives which guide the listener from beginning to the end of the performance.
