Interdecadal Oscillations

Interdecadal Oscillations was written in response to a call for works on the subject of climate change from Ann DuHamel. Much like Robert Rauschenberg’s Erased de Koonig, the composer took a precomposed work for solo piano and filtered it through a scientific article on the subject of short (15-35 years) or longer (over 50 years) variations in surface temperature. What remains is fragmented and pointillistic, which mirrors the devastation that is left behind from such swings in temperature – for example, coral reefs that have nearly disappeared in parts of the Great Barrier Reef.
