Thrinos
Next Up: The great bass baritone Nicholas Isherwood performs my new work Thrinos for voice and electronics in California. Thrinos is a Greek word for "Lament" and this work incorporates songs of sorrow from both Monteverdi and Bunraku (a form of Japanese Music Theater). This work is part of my media opera, with text by Lance Olsen from his wonderful novel "Dreamlives of Debris" and electronic sound realization by Adam Vidiksis. Below is page 1 of the score:
