Work Overview
A piece designed to converge music and movement into a common space.
The composition was created for a collaborative project with dancer and choreographer Hayley Page. The decision to perform the composition onstage alongside the choreography arose quite late in the process. The poetical convergence between the intimacy of a pas de trois and a solo piano part enabled us to sustain a dialogue between the piano lines, and the lines of the dancers. The phrase architecture gravitates around a simple set of narrative cues, which were developed in tandem through the compositional and choreographic processes, acting as anchors for the musician and dancers.
"We are all broken, that's how the light gets in."
- Ernest Hemmingway
