Sheet Music: ScoreSINUATUS / Wendy Suiter.by Wendy Suiter (2022)

Product details
SINUATUS is inspired by the unusual flowers of the Queensland Firewheel Tree, as well as Pauline Oliveros' philosophy of deep listening to include psychic phenomena as well as the sounds of and in everyday and unusual locations.
My very first choral experience in my music degree was a four
part 'song'
Pauline composed using only vocalisation of the sounds produced
by a tape recorder mechanics. Sadly, although I cannot remember
the name of this music, but I loved the notion of backwards
translation from machine to human sound making as well as the
freedom in the way sounds melded together in time to make the
bigger meaning from the individual weird sounds.
