drown with inundations every dwelling

is a response to John Cage’s “In A Landscape” as an exploration of resonance and embodiment across both harp and piano. The resulting interplay gnaws at the keyboard proxy present in contemporary harp repertoire and how it limits the instrument’s expressive possibilities. The work is a meditation on a letter from Seneca to a grieving mother in which he describes the universality of death. In seeking out the waves and resonances of such things through sound, we can relish in the beauty of decay.
