for cello and 12 carefully tuned snare drums
12 snare drums in a seemingly random placement around the solo cello.
The snares resonate with the specific frequencies of their tuning, each to a different tone. An extension of the instrument that not only signifies, but makes it possible to physically experience the the propagation of sound in space – evoking the image of a 3 dimensional sound map.
A magical, sensitized space reacting to the tiniest sonic propositions.
