Ghost Ensemble fosters groundbreaking music that blurs borders of genre, style, and scene, expanding perceptual horizons through shared immersive experience. Their May 18th performance at St John the Evangelist Episcopal Church in San Francisco, California presents new works by composers Sky Macklay, Ben Richter, and Catherine Lamb. In this interview, Joseph Bohigian talks with Macklay and Richter, who are both members of the ensemble, about their works, Ghost Ensemble’s evolution since its founding in 2012, and the influence of Pauline Oliveros and Deep Listening. We also hear from Lamb about her new work for Ghost Ensemble, interius/exterius.
