Symphony for Chamber Orchestra- 3rd Movt: Rondo

Ah, the solitude of quietness and pureness of sound.  I like to imagine the sound, air and space around me are magically aligned.  Thank you for listening!

Solitude

August 2025 Currently on residency in Italy ! 
These are 3 short sketches using field recordings captured around Montegiovi, Tuscany. With these little works I am experimenting freely with what can be produced from each days sounds -  manipulating them and stiching them back together with the aim of producing a long format work at the end of the residency. 
I am truly thankful for this opportunity that has been provided for me by the Salamanca Arts Centre in Tasmania and Cultivate Projects/La Baldi residency in Italy and The USA. 
And of course the wonderful people of Montegiovi ! 

Tuscany Experiments 1 - 3

August 2025 Currently on residency in Italy !
These are the 2nd batch of 3 short sketches using field recordings captured around Montegiovi, Tuscany. With these little works I am experimenting freely with what can be produced from each days sounds - manipulating them and stitching them back together with the aim of producing a long format work at the end of the residency. I have done a dozen or so since arriving a fortnight ago but not sharing them all (some are pretty rubbish). The idea is to have them done by the end of the day (or night) then move on to something fresh the next day.

Rather Strange

Blue in River
Poem and music by Pamela Illanes-Tatsuoka

Blue, so blue in river

Every night
I come
to see you

Blue, so blue in river

I can see your pensive water
the full moon
above you
and the shimmering of she

Blue, so blue in river
you take away
the sadness out of me

Blue, so blue in river

You take away
the sadness out of me

Blue, blue in river

Blue in River (Live)

August 2025 Currently on residency in Italy !
All sounds here (melody, texture, harmony, percussive sounds etc) are made from a field recording of the dogs in the valley below my balcony... well except for my whistle : ) 
They have been my sonic companions
Residency is coming to end, its been a month of complete experimentation with more than 20 little sketches done, all using field recordings captured around Montegiovi, Tuscany. With these little works I am experimenting freely with what can be produced from each days sounds - manipulating them and stitching them back together with the aim of producing a long format work at the end of the residency. The idea is to have them done by the end of the day (or night) then move on to something fresh the next day.

This is one of two still photographs of me playing the piano. I like this photograph because it somehow iterates the black and white keys of the piano, and the black and white face of the player, like a Zen symbol.
