Adam Zuckerman is a musician based in Los Angeles, CA.
Adam works with acoustic, electronic, and environmental materials in the creation of scores, recordings, performances, and installations. At the core of his work is an understanding of music as having a uniquely immediate connection with the pure sensation of sound. Music does not represent anything but exists for itself as an acoustic object which coalesces sound, explores its possibilities, and presents it for aesthetic apprehension. All of the components which make up a piece – its materials, textures, structures, temporal dimensions, conceptual frameworks, concrete performance situations – these serve to allow sound to unfold its rich materiality as a concretization and reiteration of the creative impulses of the world. In this way, music reveals and explores the inherent beauty of sound in a world always full of vibration. Adam’s music aspires to offer an intuition into this vast and folded sonic world as it holds open an immersive space for listening, reflection, and imagination in a celebration and affirmation of existence.
Adam frequently collaborates with other musicians and artists, and he has had work performed and presented by ensembles, labels, and festivals internationally. He holds a B.M. in Music Composition and a B.A. in Ancient Greek from the Bard College and Conservatory of Music as well as an M.F.A. in Experimental Sound Practice from the California Institute of the Arts. Adam teaches composition, theory, piano, guitar, and violin to elementary, middle, and high school students. He also regularly organizes shows and concerts around Los Angeles.
For his release with NCTMMRN, entitled The Hand, The Grid, And The Red Breeze, Adam amplifies the internal dynamics and slow transformations of a single, typically very quiet sound.
