sean by Sean Adams March 14th, 2016

DiS got pretty excited about the inaugural Piano Day last year, and so you can imagine how ecstatic we were when we were asked to partake in this year's festivities at a special private event.

Here are the details:

ROLI Seaboard RISE

Live Audio-Visual Performance

Musician and creative coder Felix Faire presents a real time audio visual performance using the ROLI Seaboard RISE, a radically new musical instrument that reimagines the piano keyboard as a soft, continuous surface and puts expression back at your fingertips.

With special thanks to all the performers, Sofia Ilyas of Float PR, Kayleigh of Town Hall Hotel, Naile Muslu of Waggon Design, Nils Frahm and many others!

The poster was designed by Waggon Design and the image, is of an installation created by Lily Hunter Green to exhibit the material taken from inside the Piano Hive. The installation was located on the Henry Moore Lawn at Aldeburgh Music in 2014.
