Augury (2016​-​2023) for bagpipes & sine waves

about

In fall 2023, the group Tongue Depressor toured through Pittsburgh and I had the tremendous fortune of hearing them play "Tapping Season" (link below - it's f*cking amazing). I got to talk to the band a bit afterwards and started a conversation with Henry Birdsey, their bagpipe player.

We traded info and Henry created a new live instrument part for my 2016 work, Augury. Augury is my first ever piece for tape and live instrument but was written during a rather intense/difficult time. It has been very meaningful to return to this piece some 7+ years later.

I recommend listening to this with a pair of good headphones with the volume set rather high.

Here's a link to Tongue Depressor's "Don't Tell No Tales Upon Us" which started this collaboration - trust me, don't skip this one - it's so good
