'23 New Music Festival: Armond Dorsey, The Breathing Suite (performance)
Poetry and music-guided slow-breathing take you on a dream.
The Breathing Suite is a participatory piece that invites audiences to discover how to control their own breathing and reduce stress. A poem is narrated throughout the work, accompanied by immersive audio of breathing and field recordings. The dream unfolds with electronic effects and clarinet as the performer guides the audience to breathe deeply, asking: will you breathe with me?
