Rachel Beetz

Flutist Rachel Beetz returns with Tone Keepers, on February 6. The album track “Reverb” explores an “alien harmonic orbit” built from spacious multiphonics and cyclical breath. Beetz treats sound as physical touch—a transduction of energy through air to the eardrum. Experience the album in full at Rhizome DC on February 4, featuring a large ensemble including Animal Collective’s Geologist and Alma Laprida.
