five faces of medea – World premiere Melbourne, Australia, 30 Sep 2015

Program note
FIVE FACES OF MEDEA (Premiere). This work was especially created for Ulrike Volkhardt for tonight’s performance. Euripides’ Medea is the tragic tale of the foreigner Medea (1. Barbaros, Xenia) who marries Jason through clever tricks and sorcery (2. Goes, Magica). When jilted for another woman, Creon’s daughter, she suffers terrible shame and goes into a piteous state of decline. She cries out against Jason, the most terrible man (3. Kakiston Andron). Medea is considered dangerous and is ordered into exile. Her revenge (4. Let the whole house crash) is wrought through the poisoned robe which kills Jason’s new bride. To inflict further hurt on Jason Medea kills their two children, the most unbearable act. Her grandfather, the Sungod Helios (5.) comes down to take her away.

Ros Bandt: Raptor (2014)

Raptor is an investigation of the flight of the Acquilla Chrysaetos, the Golden eagle taking us over the Joshua Tree Biosphere where it was recorded, to Beaver Creek. The granulated eagle calls are stretched to represent the psycho perceptual orientation of the eagle, solitary, looking down over the land. The harmonic drones of the bowed tarhu within this sound field position the eagle’s eye, creating a moving point through which we can share the dynamic movements through these spaces as it rides and tips the relationship between the planes of the dihedral angles intrinsic to its flight. The slow strength, power and control of these magnificent birds can defy our aerodynamic understanding as they sculpt the biosphere. Length 15 minutes. Thanks to Jim Atkins.
