what it means to fall apart

Join us on September 1st for the world premiere of Kris Bendrick’s what it means to fall apart alongside soprano Molly Bendrick. This piece is our first major collaboration with a composer and we can’t wait for you to experience it! We will also share the evening our friends of the intrepid reed trio, Ritual Action.

what it means to fall apart is a new transformative music composition project that captures the essence of human emotion and consists of a vocalist, string quartet, live electronics, responsive lighting, and live video projection. The piece is a multi-movement work that draws on a hodgepodge of text from numerous sources, including poetry, blogs, and safety manuals, to create a postmodern absurdist experience that grapples with the humor and terror of "falling apart."
