About this piece:
Twisted Thread is a conceptual piece aimed to embody a moving image of one tiny, unevenly coiled piece of fabric. The root compositional idea of this piece involves a spiraled, chromatic figure which can be traced throughout the piece. This spiraled chromaticism manifests in different fashions and instruments, representing a twisted thread. This thread constantly changes shape through elongating, shrinking, loosening, tightening, tearing, and connecting.
Performed by the University of Memphis Contemporary Chamber Players under direction of Dr. Kamran Ince.
