Renowned Ukrainian pianist Lubomyr Melnyk will be conducting a 3-hour workshop during Substrata. During the workshop, you’ll learn to develop strength in your fingers and improve your agility and mental control. Afterward, Lubomyr will focus on his “continuous music” style.

About Substrata
Substrata 1.5 is the 5th edition of Seattle’s intimate sound & visual art weekend happening July 16 – 18, 2015.
As the name substrata implies, it is about subtle aesthetics that go beneath the surface and into deeper aural territories. At its nucleus: an all-ages live performance program, workshop, and field recording trip within the beautiful Cascade region of the Pacific Northwest.
The idea behind Substrata is to explore varying perspectives of scale though the use of sound, composition and visuals. It features three live performance showcases featuring accomplished and internationally renowned artists working within the cutting edge where structural abstraction meets physical dynamics. The performance program focuses on live electronic music: applying technology to a concert setting while incorporating traditional and non-traditional instruments.
Substrata 1.5 will be held at the Chapel Performance Space and presented in collaboration with Nonsequitur. As all previous “sold-out” editions, tickets are pre-sale only and there will be no tickets available at the venue. Please do not show without a ticket or festival pass.
