The avant-garde composer and musician William Basinski has been announced for his debut Dublin live show this year by promoters Selective Memory.
The show will take place at Pepper Canister Church, Dublin on Thursday 11th November 2021.
Tickets are €22.50 plus fee available form selectivememory.ie and Ticketbooth from Friday morning at 9am.
Basinksi’s most well-known work is 2002 and 2003’s four-volume The Disintegration Loops in which the tape loops of music went through a degradation process over time.
Basinksi was due to attend an interview at the World Trade Centre on September 11th 2001, the day the towers were attacked. The artwork featured a New York city skyline taken in the aftermath and the album became a tribute to those who lost their lives.
Basinski’s most recent album was 2020’s Lamentations.
