Jessie Nucho performing the world premiere of In Response, by Brett Austin Eastman, at Center for New Music in San Francisco on Jan 18, 2020. Notes from the composer about the piece:

"The first part of a three-work suite for flute, In Response is written for flute and tape. It is about the pain of being concerned about the direction of society and feeling like you are following an endless stream of society’s self-fulfilling media stories with no way to tell your story back to it. The tape part is a pre-recorded feedback performance using an electric guitar and ring modulator, representing the daily streams of information we receive from higher up sources that can’t hear our voice. The flute represents the individual voice in response."
