TEXT

DOMME
No!
You don’t own me.
Think you know me?
I know you.
You come here to be dominated,
But you can’t hide your hatred.
Your cringing is a kind of swagger.
Your begging is a command.
Your submission is my slavery.
You think I’m trash, a tool, something to be used and tossed.
Just a commodity.
Your property.

Oh…
Think you know me?
Want to own me?
Get to know me.
Look into these eyes and see what I am.
I’m out of your price range:
The pretty pink doll you cannot buy.
Knock me down, but I will rise.
There’s a million more behind me, too.
I’m your mother, your wife, your daughter, 
Your mistress, your sister, your teacher, 
Your angel, your devil, your god.
I’m everything to you.
(The pose is frozen. Now we hear from deep inside her.)
Is this part of the game?
What about the rules?
Who’s in charge? 
Where is it going?
I despise his dead eyes; 
His sour breath, like death.
So why am I wet 
And the blood pounds around
In my head!
Ever since you were a girl,
You knew this day was coming.
A murderer knocks, you open the door,
And meet your glory, glory, glory!

So…
Now you know me.
No one owns me.
What about you?
What the fuck are you?!?
(With a free hand she grabs the whip from the table.)
Cash. And a dick.
A sack of shit with a money clip.
You’re my two-o-clock session and your time is nearly up.
(She winds the whip around his neck; he doesn’t resist.)
You’re my father, my lover, my son, my trick, my slave, my student, my rent, my plaything, my toy, my tool, my trash.
(She jerks the whip tight, leans back. They’re moving together rhythmically.)

CLIENT
Oh, yes, Mistress Salome!

DOMME
You’re a commodity.

CLIENT
Can’t. Can’t breathe!

DOMME
My property!

CLIENT
Wait, wait stop!

Oh, yes, Mistress Salome!

DOMME
You’re a commodity.

CLIENT
Can’t. Wait! Stop!

DOMME
My property!

CLIENT
Can’t breathe! Can’t breathe!

DOMME
Now you know, 
Now you know,
Now you know:
I own you!

A piece of music is a mentally constructed entity, of which scores and performances are partial representations by which the piece is transmitted.
(Fred Lerdahl & Ray Jackendoff)

Any tone can succeed any other tone, any tone can sound simultaneously with any other tone or tones, and any group of tones can be followed by any other group of tones, just as any degree of tension  or nuance can occur in any medium under any kind of stress or duration. Successful projection will depend upon the contextual and formal conditions that prevail, and upon the skill and soul of the composer.
(Vincent Persichetti)

Music is a system of signs composed of complex forms which may be represented by physical sounds, and which in this way mediate between mental and psychic contents. To deal with such a system, semiotics are naturally evoked. To describe these forms, mathematics is the adequate language. To represent these forms on the physical level, physics are indispensable. And to understand the psychic contents, psychology is the predestined science.
(Guerino Mazzola)

American composer Robert Paterson is a true New Yorker—born and bred in Buffalo, he lived in Rochester and Ithaca for over ten years, in New York City for over twenty years, and now lives in Saratoga Springs, near the Adirondacks. Paterson’s colorful music embraces a wide variety of themes, everything from goddesses and online dating to mathematics and the environment. His music is filled with emotion and fierce rhythmic energy, marked by elegance, wit, and meticulous craftsmanship. Named Composer of The Year by the Classical Recording Foundation at Carnegie Hall, Paterson is the winner of the Alfred I. DuPont Award, and his opera Three Way won the Grammy® under Best Classical Producer of the Year. His music is often a Best of the Year pick on National Public Radio. His orchestral tone poem, Dark Mountains, regularly airs on NPR’s Performance Today. Three Way premiered with Nashville Opera, then BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music), and across the United States. Minnesota Orchestra, Louisville Orchestra, The Oratorio Society of New York, Buffalo Philharmonic, Albany Pro Musica, Albany Symphony, Musica Sacra, Austin Symphony, Vermont Symphony, and ensembles worldwide perform his works. Paterson gives masterclasses at the Curtis Institute of Music, New York University, the Aspen Music Festival, the Cleveland Institute of Music, and more. He is the Artistic Director and house composer for Mostly Modern Projects. Robert is a lifelong vegan and advocates for animals and the environment, celebrating the natural world with ground-breaking works such as his Triple Concerto, A New Eaarth, Listen, and I Go Among Trees.
