Follow me inside out
live performance

The piece “Follow me inside out” constructs its musical language out of one instrument, the cello. I recorded the building process of a cello and used these sounds to create a composition that combines the music of the cello with the wood sounds that were made in creating the cello. Using both the 'inner' and 'outer' sounds of a cello and in dialogue with the cello player Claire Goldfarb we created friction and a merging of both musical languages into a piece that turns the body of a cello inside out.

Thanks to Thomas Meuwissen for opening his atelier.
