Verbal Notation Scores
Inspired by the likes of Yoko Ono, La Monte Young and James Saunders, this collection of compositions are written in plain English, as opposed to traditional music notation.
Shown below are two collections of verbal notation scores, written for pianist Parisa Shirvani and drummer Deantoni Parks.
Collection One: Piano Compositions for Parisa Shirvani
The following compositions were written as part of my master’s thesis on Generative Music, for pianist Parisa Shirvani to perform.
The Primary Audience is the Pianist
This is Parisa’s performance of piece #3, ‘The Primary Audience is the Pianist’. It was recorded in 2017 in La Chunky Studios, Glasgow.
Collection Two: Technoself School of Philosophy Compositions for Deantoni Parks
The following compositions were written during my participation in Deantoni Parks’ Technoself School of Philosophy in 2020.
