GREENHOUSE
“Where I am is also where I am not. When I am home, I am also drawn to what I hear beyond it. I have wanted a music that is both here and there, a music that, like a greenhouse, merges indoor and outdoor space. Out of that desire came this piece.
“The motif slows and creates space for outside sounds to travel inside. It mixes with the rustle of trees and the noise of cars passing by. Our attention begins to shift: it considers ambient sounds alongside recorded sounds. The real wind and recorded wind are one.”
