We would like to invite you to join us for a short a performance collaboration between Katrina Wolfe and Joey Largent, followed by a film screening of our group performance from last December, 2022, performed at Chapel Performance Space here in Seattle. The work was a collaboration between Katrina Wolfe and Joey Largent and performed by a special ensemble of friends and fellow meditators, Annapurna Dharma Communion (Jackie An, Ian Gwin, Russell Christenson, Manasvi Patel, Sam Vanderlinda, Michael Shannon, Katrina Wolfe and Joey Largent). This is a great chance to see and listen to the piece if you weren’t able to make it, or if you just want to see it again! The work features incredibly subtle and dynamic dancing from Katrina Wolfe in her beautifully handmade costumes as she drifts through the sounds of the score.

Original description of the piece:
Joey Largent presents his most recent composition in collaboration with movement/costume/installation artist Katrina Wolfe for an acoustic just intonation ensemble composed of meditation practitioners, musicians, and friends. Composed primarily on the Olympic Coast and in the North Cascades near the Lower Curtis Glacier, the work follows an exploration of changing natural landscapes and physical masses as the ensemble organically weaves through a semi-improvised score paired with the gradual tidal changes of an extended field recording from the Washington Coast. Sensitive to the sound and structure, Wolfe offers a complementary reflection of the terrain through continuous, hypnotic movement that is enhanced by her meticulously hand-stitched costumes and intricate choreography. Pulling from ongoing years of study in North Indian Classical gayaki (vocal music), Largent’s composition unifies these elements by suspending a passage through variations of four different ragas of morning, afternoon, and night for a slow moving work of an unfixed duration.
