about

Pat Boran says:

“Despite what I expect is the natural aversion one’s own voice, this piece quickly won me over, opening with a risky investment in melody and rhythm, counterpointed by the scene-setting of breaking waves. For me the haiku sequence of the original book is very much about rhythms, long and shorter, about how they blend and interfere and surprise each other, and those ideas feel very much echoed in this work which, rather than provide a continuous backdrop, attempts to respond to them in short, focused expressions, varying from the opening, almost spritely mood through an acoustic guitar part to a Satie-inspired piano piece, etc. There’s a risk, of course, in combining many distinct movements, but there’s enough atmospheric and narrative sequencing to hold the piece together and and strongly suggest a kind of mini documentary in itself.”
