Sabotaging Piano Concert

Teodoro Dannemann

Music Proceedings of the International Conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression

Abstract

The Sabotaging Piano is an electronic prepared piano that challenges performers through the remapping of keys to unexpected pitches. For every new performance, a new remapping pattern is given, so performers face a continuously surprising new element. The performer is provided with an expression pedal (a ``sabotaging pedal'') to modulate the amount of keys that will we remapped, going from none to all of them.
