Project [BLANK] presents the west-coast premiere of RESERVOIR 2 by groundbreaking American composer Sarah Hennies. This evening-length work for choir and flute blurs the lines between performance and installation, and is based on the idea that the unconscious mind can act as a deep “reservoir” or repository for our most profound memories. Our new staging will activate and transform the vaulted spaces of St. Paul’s Cathedral, enveloping the listener in a constellation of voices calling out from the depths. Featuring a new light and video installation designed by Allison O. Evans, and performed by the San Diego New Verbal Workshop.
