Event Description
Unaccompanied trombone and voice boldly interpret the poems of the late P.K. Page through song and dance. Scott Thomson’s suite of songs originally commenced in 2010 as arrangements for his Steve Lacey inspired project, The Rent, but have since been adapted to an intimate duet specially designed for vocalist/dancer Susanna Hood. Together they fuse word and song with dances choreographed and performed by Susanna Hood, “what emerges is a kind of dance between voice and trombone, between word and sound, a subtle counterpoint between conjoined melodies and ideas of voice, always in close connection to the gestural power of Page’s phrases,” Stuart Broomer, Music Works, 2013.
