Three vertical sTRIPES
Three Vertical Stripes Performance - Hamilton House Gallery, May 2018
The piece is an original composition. The piece is for seven saxophonists, arranged surrounding the audience with each of the saxophonist playing one of 8 musical phrases, played looped. Each saxophone plays one loop each and each loop comes in building to a central climax and then the piece subsides away until there is just a single saxophone.

“I was near the bass guy near the window, when they stated there was something so mesmerizing about watching them play and sway. The sound was beautiful...the saxophone resonates, I really felt it, it washed over me and it was amazing.”
“It made me cry”
