Narrow Sea was written for Sō Percussion Dawn Upshaw and Gil Kalish in 2017. The piece combines my previous explorations of folk song with a sonic universe that includes ceramic bowls humming a piano played like a dulcimer by five people at once and flower pots (which are the central focus of Taxidermy my first piece for So Percussion written in 2012). Gil Kalish s piano serves as a grounding force or a familiar memory that keeps reappearing amid the different textures introduced by Sō Percussion. And Dawn Upshaw s voice is a brilliant instrument that brings the words to life with warmth and directness.
