Ailís spent most of August in the USA in both New York and ArtOMI Upstate New York, as the Unlimit Music Fellow as part of OMI’s annual international musician’s residency where she focused on improvisation, performance and developing solo repertoire for prepared and inner piano.
Every Summer, Music Omi invites a group of professional musicians—composers and performers from around the globe—to come together for a unique collaborative music making residency program. Music Omi encourages its participants to share ideas, perform each other’s works, and write music for one another, while exploring their own musical vision and broadening their artistic and cultural horizons.
The group presented a set of improvisations at Hudson’s Basilica on 13th August here is a link to an article and review.
Below is a short recording for solo piano which Ailís performed at OMI.
