Atlanta Improvisers Chorus - August 4, 2024

Annotations:

This performance followed a loosely structured and improvised ABC form, primarily focusing on various contextualizations and developments of Memory 1 (high voices sliding up and down). I re-contextualized this motif to be placed against speech, cluster tones, and more, while also creating variation in the vowels, dynamics, and speed of the memory.

4:30 A: Long Clusters + Pitch Variation – Memory 1 + Speech
