Beschreibung
Drawing on music theorist Edward Klorman’s idea of “multiple agency,” Lewis explores the social dimensions of chamber music, treating the interaction among performers as a musical drama of individual and collective voices. For Lewis, performance is shaped not only by the musicians onstage but also by listeners, whose choices of “how and what they choose to hear” become part of the work itself. Echoing Frederic Rzewski’s belief that music is fundamentally “based on friendship,” the trio traces connections of empathy, community, and shared experience. Written expressly for the Merz Trio, the work reflects Lewis’ longstanding interest in human interaction, whether through improvisation, artificial intelligence, or notated composition.
