The Shopper Counts

was composed as part of the Concrete Timbre Covid-eo #1 Project. Bertolt Brecht's The Shopper (1934) gives immediate reactions to and commentary upon the events of his world; they seem remarkably similar to what we see now during our pandemic life. Features a video by Robert Morton, performances by Coran Newland (Narrator), Aleksandra Newland (Flute), Claire Carson (Soprano 1), Amy Carson Dwyer (Soprano 2), and Ann Warren (piano).

During this terrible Covid-19 Pandemic, Concrete Timbre has been meeting (virtually, of course) with affilated artists to create short videos, new music, sound, texts, and images to share.

We're glad that we're still able to connect.
