Convexed Origins

January 6, 2016

for moving flutist and pre-recorded electronic part

Composer: Jane Rigler

Year of Composition: 2015
Instrumentation: flute and recording
Type of Electronics: Fixed

Number of Channels: 2
Duration: 17 min.
Video Component: None

Influenced by the movement of traditional Noh actors, Convexed Origins links ancient Japanese gestures as both sound and movement. This is a summoning to one’s ancestors through the simplicity of line, shape and texture of sound and body. The pre-recorded electronic part dictates the form, the flute outlines the body and the movement extends the boundaries of the music.
