Description
On Saturday, October 18, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. Open Space presents Susanna Hood and Scott Thomson performing The Muted Note in concert.
Unaccompanied trombone and voice boldly interpret the poems of the late P.K. Page through song and dance. The Muted Note is a suite of eleven songs, a hybrid of jazz and artsong, written by Scott Thomson. This intimate duet was created for vocalist/dancer Susanna Hood who choreographed and performs the work. Through the words of P. K. Page, the suite creates a contemplative mood owing to the inextricable link between Hood’s voice and movement and Thomson’s often-sparse trombone. Newcomers to new music, as well as seasoned veterans, will be taken with this night of movement and sound.
