Programme Notes

As part of Trinity Laban’s annual CoLab, a season of interdisciplinary collaboration and experimentation, I was involved with a group exploring artistic depictions of water. My part in the project was to write a short piece describing water ice, and this is the resulting music. It’s very slow (glacial, even - do excuse me!), and was designed for dancers to be able to move with cool and calculated movements.
