Inflections

Maggi Payne

About this work:
Inflections is a solo flute work which explores space/spaciousness. The spaces in between events are equal in importance to the sounds produced by the flutist. Each sound is a "precious" entity—as if each is an irregular pearl in a string of pearls. The intervening silence acts as the thread that binds them together.
