Program Notes

"folds in crossings" is one of five pieces of a larger interdisciplinary work, "What Brings You In," created by Leslie Ting. A violinist confronts the noise of her psyche in an electroacoustic soundscape. A percussionist sifts through her subconscious with a sandbox as an instrument. Based on interview research, and personal experiences with talk therapy, hypnotherapy, dreamwork, sandplay, somatics, and reiki, this experimental, music-driven work-in-progress is an exploration of where and when our truest selves emerge through a series of sound pieces. In development.
