Dr. Jeff Roberts (Williams College) will present a lecture‐recital on his study of guqin in Beijing with master Li Xiangting over the last four years and discuss the aesthetic and creative connections this has with his composing and improvising in the US. He will perform guqin traditional works and improvisations and a composition for guqin and live electronics (using Max‐Msp) that blends guqin with found object sounds.

This will be a rare opportunity to see a guqin performance on campus.
