Mark Gresham about my performance at the inaugural edition of the Ear Pollen series in Atlanta GA…

“The featured performer, around whom the concert was constructed, was Andrew Levine of Hamburg, Germany, improvising in a compact array of instruments: Theremin, a small 0-Coast (“No-Coast”) analog synthesizer, a STEIM Cracklebox (“Kraakdoos” in the original Dutch) and a Haken Continuum synthesizer. It was a superb performance with a good feeling of looseness to it, and what was most surprising is that it was Levine’s first solo public performance ever. Prior to Wednesday’s show, he had only performed publicly in ensembles.” [EarRelevant 01/21/2020]

Many thanks to Klimchak for the invitation! I look forward to my next visit 🙂

Incidentally, I realized that the concert took place on Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday when I visited the natural historic park on 01/16! The national holiday is always on the Monday following this date, which was confusing. Anyway, I feel humbled to have been able to able to give my solo debut on this very special day!

I am very happy that Rick Reid featured a piece from the trio release with GRAMSS / KRENNERICH / LEVINE. Check out his unique podcast for a collection of Theremin-related music!

The ensemble BssT – Krennerich-Levine-Ohlmeier-Schubert performed live on September 07 2019 at the World Wide Window in Berlin. Check out our complete set here: 190907_BssT

I met Eric Cordier for the first time when my train stopped at Berlin central station. He had been working at the lounge since his arrival. Together we traveled the last leg of the journey and set up at WorldWideWindow in Schöneweide. From 23:15 to 01:30. The concert the following evening was an intense exploration of the innermost murmurings and songs of the laptops’ components. Amazing!

On May 18 Eric Cordier will perform with me as a NoOutputLaptop-Theremin duo. Looking forward to the soundscapes hidden away in the ultra compact electronics!

On May 09 the bass player Sebastian Gramss from Cologne and the saxophone player Andreas Krennerich from Stuttgart joined me in Hamburg for an improvised, sometimes quite jazz-like session. It was also my premiere with the Cracklebox from STEIM.

A selection of the music can be purchased at Bandcamp. There is also a smaller subset available on video at Vimeo and YouTube.

Nathalia and I had a great time performing together! I played my theremin in reverse fashion, with the left hand controlling the pitch and the right hand modulating the rhythm, and it worked amazingly well. Looking for to explore more possibilities in the near future!
