PRESAVE FINDING FONDNESS FULL EP - everywhere you listen to music June 28th [ Ссылка ]

*Finding Fondness* is a collection of five flute duets exploring the lived experience of The Emerald
Ruby as a late-diagnosed Autistic individual. This body of work is an emotionally
vulnerable sound-based exploration of an increasingly common experience. Taking influence from
Hankin’s vast and varied musical history, *Finding Fondness* redefines the aesthetic and technical
expectations of music made by two flutes.

ABOUT TRACK 1: Fidgeting

Society expects that all adults have the ability to sit still. I imagine most wear this controlled bodily zen like a badge of honour, awarded for making it through every milestone as expected. I am incredible unlikely to experience this phenomena - The older I get the less I am able to maintain the facade of a still statue, always needing to have some part of my body moving . As I’ve learned to take up space, and show up exactly as I am, I've begun to embrace a new kind of Zen, a calm that requires the soothing cadence of fidgeting.
With it’s driving tempo, virtuosic hockets and intricate polyrhythms, this movement captures the restless energy and chaotic joy the act of fidgeting facilitates.

A huge thankyou to my associate artist @[108918621028640|Sally Walker, Flautist]   for exploring this body of work with me and @[146184488728214|ABC Classic]  for supporting the creation and release of this music through their composer commission fund.
