Read The Program Notes
In this performed installation, two identical groups of instruments (here Cello, Saxophone, Clarinet) are positioned at opposite sides of the room with the audience in the middle.
The musicians read from the full score selecting their own pitch from those available at the moment to build chords that shift and grow surrounding the listener. The two mandalas of Quadrilateral Starfield Symmetry PAVS(3) 2:7:154 are projected above the performers on opposite walls.
