Popis - BAYOU-BORNE/JITTERBUG:
"In 2017 Maze gave a stunning interpretation of 'Jitterbug' at the Tactile Paths Festival in Berlin, full of subtle detail and fluid energy. That they have returned to the work now - and have also created this beautiful realization of 'Bayou-Borne, For Pauline' - is something for which I am deeply grateful. Both works draw on improvisation and are guided by graphic imagery: of a river system in Texas and of rocks from the Continental Divide in Montana. 'Bayou-Borne, For Pauline' (2016) is dedicated to Pauline Oliveros and was composed with her passions in mind. She was born in Houston, Texas, so I created a graphic score from a map of the six bayous which flow through the city to Galveston Bay, thinking that she would have known one or all of those rivers intimately as a child - swimming, wading, river mud between her toes. She was a superb improviser, so it is scored for six improvising musicians with each player reading one of the rivers as a guide. Their lines move independently at first, coming closer together at the confluences to form duets and trios, before converging at the red star, the whole sound darkening as they approach Houston in memory of the devastation and deaths caused by Hurricane Harvey in 2017. This is one of eighty-five scores contributed to a memorial celebration of Pauline's life: 'Still Listening: New Works in Honour of Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016),' held at McGill University, Canada, in 2017. I wish to thank Doris Yokelson for the design of the map." ~Annea Lockwood, December 2021.
