Prado florido

(Guerrero, Lisbon, late C16th)

Prado florido explores sound as wave rather than object. Fragments of Guerrero recombine as they are blown (literally and metaphorically) at different degrees of dissolution through the score, the apparently silent actions of the percussionist and the sound processing. As wave phenomena move across the meadow of Guerrero’s title, the particles recombine within the sea of sound formed by the resonance of cymbals – played near-silently but processed and diffused through the space.
