Threshing Floor

Experimental saxophone and percussion duo scapegoat (Noam Bierstone, percussion; Joshua Hyde, saxophone) releases "Threshing/Plastic," a recording featuring two path breaking works written for them by Mauricio Pauly and Santiago Díez-Fischer. These works explore subtle gradations of timbre and sound through integration of electronic elements and processing, inviting the listener inside rarefied sonic environments before deftly managing their gradual evolution. Formed in Paris in 2013, close creative collaboration and multi-media projects form the basis of scapegoat's pursuit for artistic innovation and expression. Programmes are designed to broaden and challenge the musical experience of the audience, through original works featuring live electronics, performer-controlled sonic and visual amplification, video and lighting design, and improvisation.
