about

The excerpt is part of a set of preludes that formed the development for the work Watermark. This work played on impressionist water mythology, using Ravel's Ondine as a springboard to think about responding to current water ecology issues in the context of what some have called the aquacene. It brought together river recordings from South East Serbia, where aqua ecologies have been under serious threat from run-of-river mini hydroelectric developments that seek to bury mountain rivers in pipes for very little energy gain. I then created an instrumental response to the field recordings developing a two-hand two-piano system utilising microtonal tuning variations, preparations and extended techniques. This prelude presents the development of interlocking flow-form improvisations with the preparations and microtonal system based on listening practices around the shallow rivers.
