Product details
Writing Infinite Possibilities has extended me into new sound worlds. Exploring movement, embodiment, and what might emerge from the silence. It has grounded me and reminded me how things are brought to life with light, brilliant and glinting, and enlivened with colour, bold and lush, or through subtle shimmering shifts.
It has drawn me into imagining the distinctive virtuosity of each member of the orchestra, and to carefully curate and weave this into something emboldened and nuanced, intricate and whole.
It has been an exploration of possibilities of where the work is enlivened, finding threads of connectivity, the nuance of gestures between players, and, in allowing it to unfold, finding the moments in which the music can transition into being a felt experience.
Author Lisa Olivera beautifully describes it: "I find possibility to be deeply comforting and supportive, to be igniting and energizing, to be softening and spacious ... it is always available, always there when we choose to look, always waiting for us to let it carry us when our legs are giving out, always a way of being we can return to ... it asks us to make space for magic, to make room for something beyond ourselves..."
