Mute Hand Muse
Cameron-Wolfe, R

The music of Richard Cameron-Wolfe is not intrinsically abstract, instead residing in various realms of non-abstraction - each composition s seed-ideas emanating from an extra-musical impulse. Here we find, for example, psychodrama, esoteric symbolism, and ritual processes all articulated in macro- and micro-structures based on the irrational elasticity of the prime-number series.

Mute Hand Music: micro-opera for a waking dreamer . For soprano, alto flute doubling bass flute, and piano. Diagnosis: She has lost her bearings . This brief theatrical work is scored for soprano, alto/bass flutes, and piano. Its libretto is a 1992 dream-poem by the composer. The setting is (perhaps) a mental institution and the (possible) in-patient is clearly schizophrenic. What is not clear, however, is the character-identity of the flutist and pianist doctor, therapist, another patient?... or figments of the schizophrenic s imagination? As in the earlier micro-opera MeMarie, the soprano often alternates between singing and sprechstimme.

Single score.
