Based on the choreographer’s needs, I compose music that serves as the foundation for movement, using a synopsis and creative discussions to establish the world of the work, or I build sound around choreography that has already taken shape. In either approach, timing, texture, and transitions are developed to support the movement and the overall vision of the piece. Choreographers and I work until the sound and dance breathe together, a process that stays open and responsive, leading to work where sound and movement feel naturally intertwined. I have composed for dance works as short as five minutes, and as long as forty-five minutes. No matter the length, I love to use multiple sonic identities to tell a story and create a journey, showcased in my Dance Works Highlights.
