    Eli Winter is a writer, composer, and self-taught guitarist based in Chicago. Reaching across technical styles and musical idioms, Winter has developed a practice rooted in listening and collaboration, drawing inspiration from luminaries like fellow Houstonian Pauline Oliveros, his compatriots across Chicago’s jazz scene and beyond, and a host of guitar heroes. In his evolving work Ghost Notes, Winter explores new compositional methods, collaging and sculpting a bank of samples reaching back across years of recordings created with friends and fellow travelers, from studios to living rooms. This ensemble performance in Bond Chapel assembles a group of musicians who appeared on the original recordings, playing through the new works live as compositions for the first time and taking them as launchpads for further improvisation.

    Presented in partnership with Experimental Sound Studio.
