Words

Notes

Words is an ongoing set of pieces written for juice in each of which I play with a single word and it’s phonetic content, without concern for meaning. Three words are performed tonight, one each from three languages which have in some way been formative for me – Sheepdip (English!), Hamba (Xhosa – meaning ‘go’ or ‘travel’), and roegaand (Afrikaans for ‘early evening’).
