Carl Stone's composition Darda was created out of multiple layers of the live vocalizations of Makiko Sakurai, who is a practitioner of Shomyo, the ancient form of chant associated with the Tendai sect of Buddhism in Japan. Following the premiere of Darda in 2009, the piece has been performed in Tokyo, New York, Berkeley and Los Angeles. In this new version Stone has adapted the work for the amazing 36 channel sound system of Super Deluxe and will feature Ms Sakurai's live vocals along with contributions from cellist Hiromichi Sakamoto and bassist Pearl Alexander. Stone thinks of this new version as a digital prayer for the victims of the Great Earthquake of Japan 2011, and proceeds from the concert will go to benefit those victims and their families.
In the first half of the concert composer Christophe Charles also joins Carl Stone for a laptop duet, a first time collaboration between two pioneers of computer music.
