Still Air 1 explores the sonorities of quiet, but complex sounds and blends the live instrument with prepared electronic sounds. It’s the first of a series of pieces for solo wind instruments and electronics. As a stark contrast to many of my other compositions which explore speed and density, this cycle is meant to search for musical expression with very little activity.
