As the longest night of the year unfolds, Roulette stages Phill Niblock’s annual Winter Solstice concert for the 16th consecutive year, in collaboration with his partner, video artist Katherine Liberovskaya.

A livestream will be available free of charge at 8pm on the day of the performance and archived for future viewing.

Phill Niblock (1933-2024, USA) was an artist whose fifty-year career spanned minimalist and experimental music, film, and photography. Since 1985, he served as director of Experimental Intermedia, a foundation for avant-garde music based in New York with a branch in Ghent, and curator of the foundation’s record label XI. Known for his thick, loud drones of music, Niblock’s signature sound is filled with microtones of instrumental timbres that generate many other tones in the performance space. In 2013, his diverse artistic career was the subject of a retrospective realized in partnership between Circuit (Contemporary Art Centre Lausanne) and Musée de l’Elysée. The following year Niblock was honored with the prestigious Foundation for Contemporary Arts John Cage Award.
