Snoe (Extract)

Snow - Audio Page

Snow is a surround sound work which weaves a poetic monologue into a twenty-minute piece for choir, flute and electronics.

Inspired by the restless spirits of the ancient Japanese Noh theatre, where recorded choir and spoken word are fused, Snow features the voice of legendary New York performer Peggy Shaw and the flute-playing of virtuoso Yukihiro Isso.

The extract below is a  stereo mixe of the original production, which was originally a 6 or 8 speaker surround-sound piece. The entire performance space is filled with mist.  This section of the score was performed with live choir by RNCM in 2025.
