woke up in worm world
Originally composed in 2022, but reimagined and performed solo in 2026.
For an instrument I designed and built, called a “rubber band box,” this piece communicates the functions of worms in the dirt. What might it sound like down there?
First performance (2022) video at Joan Tower’s Music Alive series at the Bard Conservatory of Music, Annandale-on-Hudson, New York. With collaborator Grace Derksen.
Second performance (2026) at Vigorous Tenderness vernal equinox concert in Portland, Maine.
