Dialogue: I, the wind, the dust, the immensity is a
piece for accordion, cello, and field recording of
aeolian wind harp installation, dedicated to John
Grzinich’s sound installation “Powerless Flight” aeolian
wind harp that was built in an open field near Copper
Leg Residency in northern Estonia. This piece is also a
reconstruction of my memory of exploring and listening
to this sound installation during the residency week on
January 2021. I aim to create an environment that is in
sync with an actual moving force of nature. It shows a
process of gradually noticing the presence of the
natural forces, from subtle changes to invisible and
massive energies. In this piece, the sound installation
in the natural environment is moved to an enclosed
space; the dialogue and interaction generated by the
acoustic instruments recreate the acoustic
characteristics of the wind harp, thus it brings a
different listening experience to the audience.
