Imagine writing a piece for orchestra where the players are in different rooms, can’t hear one another, where there is no conductor for everyone and where you can’t predict where the audience will be at any one time. That was the starting point for “Resonance”, a new 18 minute piece written for the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to open the Synaesthesia+ Festival in August, 2014.
Here is an article from the Sydney Morning Herald on the new piece, and the festival.
And here are some images from the performance, which went extremely well indeed. Images courtesy of MONA/Remi Chauvin.
