The Transparence of Lady R

The Transparence of Lady R is an immersive work for flute, electronics, space, sound and images, based on the “Tales of Genji” in which the spatialized audio is a 3-dimensional sculptural counterpart of the flutist’s sonic and physical gestures. Two live elements – flutist- performer and computer-performer – coordinate closely. In this piece Jane Rigler is the flutist-performer and Elizabeth Hoffman is the computer-performer. Both Rigler and Hoffman will engage in the sound design for this work — a collaboration in which the interaction involves music, physical gestures, electronics and video interacting to form a cohesive mono-drama.
