Notes on this piece
This short piece for solo piccolo, starling sandbox, presents the performer momentous fragments and scatters them into four-lettered groupings. Performers are invited, though loosely, to use the scaffold of how to interpret the work; such as dynamics, tone colours and open mobile structure. Each gesture is based on hearing and transcribing – loosely – the birdsongs of starlings that live on my estate, and by using various extended-techniques and their microscopic variations, I was able to create a sparse yet playful texture; enhanced by the unpredictable format of “sandbox” mode, where the performer engages with the score using a fluid scaffold to engage with the fragments – finding parameters within the freedoms of proximity and dimensional interplay.
