Mark Applebaum

ADORNO is delighted to be working with composer Mark Applebaum, professor at Stanford University. A truly unique birth-child of jazz and Brian Ferneyhough, of the “New Complexity” movement, Applebaum is widely-known for his homemade sound sculpture the “Mouseketier”. On ADORNO’s performance at SFSU, the group will perform some chamber works by Applebaum including two works that were commissioned by the Logos Foundation “Accretion/Deletion” and “Identity Destruction Sport”. The composer will also join in on the concert with his Mouseketier. You can view Mark performing the mouseketier on Pith Music’s featured video. There is a fun-to-read article about Applebaum in the Stanford Alumni Magazine, or go to his website at markapplebaum.com
