On Friday, October 4, Pique Collective will present two works: the graphic score, "Bayou Borne for Pauline," by Annea Lockwood, and the premiere of a new composition by Jeremy Lyons titled, "Water Cycle."
The Lockwood is a spatially fluid piece that requires the performers to move about the room and converge at certain locations in an effort to reflect the movement of water from six bayous toward their drainage location of Houston, Texas. Dedicated to Pauline Oliveros, the piece draws upon the ethos of music being sound that occurs all around us.
Keeping with the water theme, the Lyons composition is a sonic representation of the nine major physical processes of the global water cycle. It is a theme and variations scored for flute, contrabassoon, percussion, cello, guitar, and water.
