Description:
White Water is the first of four commissions for Chamber Music Monterey Bay's 'Arc of Life' project. TheartistBill Viola shared excerpts from his video installation 'Going Forth by Day' - a depiction of life in all its stages - with the four composers, who then created compositions inspired by this.
'When I saw [Bill]Viola'swork, I was quite fascinated with how he used water as an encompassing image which influenced everything I saw about the 'person' inside the water. My piece is not directly associated by what he specifically did but itdoes have astrong connection to the image of water as a powerful basic idea and action. The many glissandos hopefully create a 'fluid' environment that connects the various ideas and registers together, while 'white water'somehow impliesmore rapid 'cascading' types of action which occur throughout the piece' - Joan Tower
