De Profundis
Description
A solo piano performance of Frederic Rzewski's "De Profundis for speaking pianist" (1994). This iteration is an adaptation based on selected texts from Oscar Wilde's 1897 letter written during his imprisonment. The performance is an interdisciplinary collision of music, text, and movement, where the pianist moves beyond traditional expressionism into an embodied role.
