Der Wrielschauplatz Lament

Description: The piece is comprised of four main elements: vocal chorus, spoken text, melodic percussion, and non-pitched percussive effects.

Zoetrope

Description: Recording of Joseph Hyde's Zoetrope. It explores issues around the relationship between people and machines, and questions perceptions of the perfection of technology. Sound is absolutely at the center of Zoetrope. It is the sound that carries the piece, dictates its form. Zoetrope uses concrete sounds and images and the language of Musique Concrete. It also takes on a little of the LoFi/Hi Tech gloss of MTV, whilst remaining one step removed.
