Garden Party, with interruption

At an otherwise peaceful Garden Party a string trio finds itself playing against and ultimately with a quartet of gardeners and their instruments.

Artist's notes:
I am interested in how much work it takes to make a garden appear peaceful and beautiful. How often have we found ourselves sitting down to expect tranquility when we are confronted by those means--grunts, cuts, lawnmowers, leaf blowers.
Recognizing that this physical force is part of the garden rather than forever outside its gates, this project works to reconcile competing forces.
