Bob PRITCHARD - "Time and Place" (excerpt)

for dancer, video, and sound.
Kathryn Cernauskas, bass flute.
Video, post production and sound by Bob Pritchard.

Music extracted from the piece Escape, My Soul, by Bob Pritchard.

Notes:
Escape, My Soul is about transfiguration of the music, the performer, and the listener. Viscera -- the first movement -- is an exploration of timbre and register, with the flute attempting to break free of the register and electronics, before settling in a lower range. InThroat, the sustained flute passages are contrasted with vocal sighs and "chiffs". The last movement Catch, Breath is the most active, with the flute being pushed to its limits. Unlike the first movement, by the end of this movement an escape does occur.

Escape, My Soul was commissioned and premiered by Kathryn Cernauskas with the assistance of the Canada Council for the Arts.
