DURATIONS: William Basinski, Chantal Michelle

William Basinski live at Public Records, Brooklyn on Wed, Nov 11, 7:00 PM. Tickets from $57.68. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.

William Basinski is a classically trained musician and composer who has been working in experimental media for over 40 years in NYC and Los Angeles. Employing obsolete technology and analogue tape loops, his haunting and melancholy soundscapes explore the temporal nature of life and resound with the reverberations of memory and the mystery of time. For DURATIONS, he presents excerpts from his first album in six years, *Passing the Cup of Sorrows*, a haunting solo piano composition paired with subtle electronics, alongside forthcoming works from his archive and some greatest hits. Chantal Michelle is a composer and interdisciplinary artist whose work engages the spatial, tactile, and perceptual dimensions of sound. Her projects include site-responsive installations, hand-blown glass instruments, conceptual scores, and recorded works. Her latest album, All *Things Might Spill* \[Shelter Press, 2026\], stretches time into tense, long-held tones and clear melodic lines that resolve into suspended, dynamic soundscapes. DURATIONS Festival is a week-long, multi-disciplinary exploration of sound and connection. Now in its fifth iteration, the festival’s programming is its most robust yet, with seven days of music, talks, and audiovisual work taking place between Public Records, Pioneer Works, Roulette, and Whitney Museum of American Art.
