Multichannel Music / Sound Works

Multichannel Music / Sound Works features works composed specifically for spatialized sound across multiple speakers. Treating space as a core parameter, these works shape trajectories, depth, and motion as integral elements of form. This concert invites audiences to experience sound as an immersive environment.

About the Artist

Richard Garet

Richard Garet is an intermedia artist whose practice treats sound as material, a generative force, and a perceptual agent, transforming sonic, luminous, and invisible energies into immersive perceptual environments. He holds an MFA from Bard College, New York, and has lived and worked in the United States since 1996. Working across sound, moving image, installation, and expanded audiovisual systems, Garet activates background noise, infrastructural sound, and technological processes to reveal conditions of mediation, attention, and perception. His work investigates the materiality of sound and image, technological abstraction, and the ontological relationships between material, media, and sensory experience.

Garet’s work is held in major institutional collections including the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), the Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA), the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (CIFO), and the SPACE Collection. His work has been presented internationally at institutions such as the National Gallery of Art (Washington, DC), Times Square Arts, MACBA (Barcelona), SFMOMA, and major biennials and museum exhibitions worldwide. His practice has been recognized by Prix Ars Electronica, the Foundation for Contemporary Arts, NYSCA, and the South Florida Cultural Consortium, and is featured in key publications on contemporary media and sound art, including books by Barbara London and Christiane Paul.

RED-Splice, 2016-26

Duration: approximately 37 minutes
Sonic construction for octophonic output (presented here in quadraphonic format)

RED-Splice (2016-26) is a multichannel sound composition by Richard Garet that explores sound as a spatial and perceptual material. Originally conceived as an octophonic work and presented here in a quadraphonic configuration, the piece emerges from the artist’s long-term investigation into what he terms material sound, drawing on electromagnetic emissions, resonant objects, sonified data, and repurposed electronic systems. Through a carefully constructed durational architecture, RED-Splice transforms these energetic traces into an immersive sonic environment shaped by acoustic space, speaker placement, and embodied listening. Balancing fixed composition with subtle performative calibration, the work invites audiences to navigate the sound field, foregrounding listening as an active spatial experience and revealing sound as a dynamic agent of perception, transformation, and attention.

José Hernández Sánchez
Magic Carillon, 2024

Duration: 7’45”

Eight individual musical voices are intertwined into a sound mass. This dense harmonic texture undergoes a transformative disentanglement, as various parameters of the musical voices are altered. Timbre, spatial location, and pitch range are among the elements that undergo change. This process yields diverse textures, allowing the discernment of individual musical voices amidst the contrast to the unified sound mass. Conceptually, the piece draws upon the ethereal associations one might experience within a dream. Loose connections are forged between the intricate mechanisms of a cuckoo clock and bird songs.

3 Seconds to Midnight, 2025

Duration: 11’40”

Using a multitude of sounds and noises distributed throughout the space, this musical work unfolds through carefully shaped combinations articulated as durational ideas. Spatial placement and temporal layering become primary compositional forces, allowing textures, densities, and trajectories to emerge as structural elements.
