FAKE (for piano and Antescofo) examines the idea of authenticity in musical performance by presenting an ambiguous relationship between a ‘real’ live piano performance and a parallel computer-based performance. FAKE uses anticipatory score following and generative computer music to create a series of variations on contrasting interaction types: simple score following; ‘inverted’ score following (whereby the pianist ‘follows’ generative passages; and a combination of these paradigms, using tempo-synched loops, to suggest the ‘performers’ might follow each other. This changing relationship permits the pianist to respond in a fluid, partially extemporised interaction with computer. In this presentation we describe the composition and collaboration process and give a full performance of the work. FAKE was commissioned by Zubin Kanga with funds from the Arts Council of Ireland. A second work, DOUBLE, for flute and computer, which elaborates on these techniques, is in progress.
