Files
Abstract
The project will be a live Jazz orchestra performance. The concert will consist of original compositions, influenced by South African history. The music will function as accompaniment to narrated historic events of South Africa. The narration will consist of live speaking, speech, voice over, text reading and conversations. I will also use video interviews and pictures of historic figures and events, accompanied by the live Jazz orchestra. Compositional ideas will be based around the mood and message set by what the narrator is presenting. The music along with the narration will make up a total of 50 minutes performance. Presented to a live audience, or a live studio recording.
