about

This work - which takes its title from the Roland Barthes book of the same name - is as much a product of the performer's creative and interpretative sensibilities as it is a product of my own compositional whims, perhaps more so. The score consists of several pages of written text (which, incidentally, make up the performance instructions). Each page uses the same basic text rendered differently to create a variety of catalysts for interpretation. Some pages see text strategically deleted, as if whittled like wood, to create shapes, patterns, and images. Others alter the text on a more systematic basis. In all cases the matter of what exactly to do with the score is left unexplained, and purposefully so. The performer is invited to explore the relationships they detect, both within the score and between the score, performance, themselves, and any other 'extra-textual' realms they see fit. There is no specified instrumentation or given performance length for Image, Music, Text.
