Confession Piece for Voice, 2020-2021, 12″ vinyl, 3’24”
Confession Piece for Voice is a sound installation played in an exhibition space on a 12-inch vinyl record upon request.
On the recording a young person’s soprano voice interprets poem in the form of a cappella. The libretto is adapted from the autobiographical work Confessions (397- 398) by St. Augustine and William Watts’ English translation from 1631. The fragmented lyrics speak of shame, lust and guilt in a repetative manner.
The composition After Confessions is composed together with composer Lauri Supponen.
