 JOHN SNYDER |
JOHN SNYDER(former Sound Environment Designer and Performer) During a portion of his high school teaching career, John became interested in electronic music and often gave seminars on the subject for special "humanities" days. Later on he taught analog synthesizer theory and techniques. From 1972 until around 1992 he composed and performed avant-garde electronic music, sometimes incorporating the use of laser light images. During this period he worked with many analog synthesizers, tape delay devices, the theremin, and a laser scanning device. He has collaborated with avant-garde jazz composer/performer/multi-instrumentalist Joe McPhee, primarily in Europe in the 1970's at various avant-garde jazz clubs and festivals. Three recordings document this work: Pieces of Light on CJR, The Willisau Concert and Rotation on Hathut. During the summer of 1986 he accidentally met the Australian Aboriginal wind instrument, the didjeridu. There was a deep, inexplicable resonance with this device and he immediately realized he had to own and play this amazing instrument. Thus began his present journey into the use of traditional indigenous instruments. Since 1989 he has been performing with the didjeridu and teaching others basic playing techniques at The New York Open Center, Juilliard, at various workshops around the country and privately. Having loved radio since childhood, John was briefly involved in Radio and TV at Syracuse University, working on the University station WAER. Three years ago he was happy to join up with Stage Shadows, drawing upon all of his experience with music and theater to accompany live radio/audio drama. |
