MoxTube
Abstract / Program Notes
MoxTube is the second in an ongoing series of indeterminate works that employs YouTube as an interactive instrument played within a person’s typical internet browser at home or en mass in a concert space. The video also functions as its score, backing track, and instructions. Within the series, each work also engages with a specific collaborator’s interests. In MoxTube, clarinetist Dr. Elisabeth Stimpert’s soloistic and pedagogical interests combine in a solo video performance that generates one of these interactive YouTube instruments and provides indeterminate wind parts, here played by the University of Central Missouri Clarinet Ensemble she leads. You can find the work online to play it for yourself on Flutist Robin Meiksins’ YouTube channel, who video edits this series.
