When the Lights Change, for two singers, toy piano, and video projections

Two performers are responding to video cues they have never before seen, manipulating chords from Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit, and changing furniture, opening umbrellas, tweaking delay pedals, etc. Each performer's decision affects the other, creating a web of shifting nuances that lead us finally to a lulling toy piano duet. This is Jeff Gavett and Rachel Calloway rocking the premiere in New York City.
