Karoo

from Backstory by Chrissie

about

Karoo is a piece I originally wrote in 2002 for an ensemble I was part of. It was scored for acoustic instruments and workshopped in front of Michael Finnissey - who liked it! This is an electronic re-realisation from that score keeping some of the original instrument sounds and changing others. The Karoo is a semi-desert in South Africa - it’s an amazing, bright and desolate place. And in the middle is an awful truck stop of a town that is dark and noisy. The cover photo for the album was taken in the Groot Karoo.
