Description:
My grandmother had advanced Parkinson's disease. Despite its surface manifestations, her sickness was not muscular. Her body worked, her brain worked, but the method of passing messages between the two malfunctioned. This sense of disassociation pervades Therfore I Was. You'll see it in the limbs of the cellist as they wrench away from the ordered movements required to sound stable pitches. You'll hear it as the players strain towards a unified breath around which to coalesce. The music repels between two aesthetic poles: one pulling the instruments towards stillness; the other anchoring their gestures to an anxious, aggressive ground.
