Five artists come together to mark a unique moment in the development of digital instrumentalities and music. The T-Stick digital musical instrument, built in 2006, will take center stage in the world premieres of five new works, among the first music to be formally created for this instrument. D. Andrew Stewart, the leading expert in t-stick performance, has invited five American and Canadian composers to collaborate in the development of repertoire for the t-stick. He is attempting to establish a tradition and approach to creating music with electronic musical instruments. The five premieres, which are the result of collaborations between Stewart and the composers of the 2010 T-Stick Composition Workshops, will be performed along with established t-stick music, as well as improvisations combing digital and acoustic instrumentalists
