PROGRAM NOTES

​

For Dancer and Projection is an accompanying work for Danielle Willis’ video dance work Celestial Bodies, which also served as her M.F.A project for that semester (Fall 2020). The sound source for the piece, a drone of five sine tones, is decidedly simple and abstract, much like the direction of the choreography. The granulation of this sound-source is inspired by the particle effects that Willis designed to be projected onto her dancer. A simple heartbeat-like pulse persists throughout the work, for the solo choreography to be edited to.

The work was the result of a collaboration between the Dance Faculty at Texas Woman’s University and the Music Faculty at the University of North Texas.
