Toby McKes

4-Channel Audio


This work is an exploration on space and time, realized through the performance and manipulation of a reed instrument. Returning to a neglected and broken accordion as both a source and an inspiration, the piece attempts to reach a compositional and musical agreement, exploring beauty in the dissonance and disrepair of an instrumental organism. This work strives to convey feelings of triumph, failure, birth, death and re-birth. In order to explore these themes, the piece utilizes a spatial framework that structures and guides the narrative of the work.
