Calling Katrina
Opus: 59
Length: 17 minutes
Instruments: Computer manipulated MIDI sounds, voices
Composed: December 2007
Abstract electronic piece which was entirely built around a brief telephone conversation I had with a friend who got caught up in Hurricane Katrina in 2005. He survived unscathed if a bit shaken up, but as a tribute to all the unfortunate people who didn't, I made this abstract work. It makes no attempt to portray the hurricane but instead attempts to convey some of the turmoil and subsequent anguish and sorrow of the survivors.
