Seven Vignettes is the third and final movement of Open Doors and Parallel Windows (2017), a soundscape composition consisting entirely of environmental and soundscape recordings made in Canada, the United States, France, Germany and Japan. Containing a series of seven short sections, Seven Vignettes develops an abstract narrative through the expansion of timbral and gestural materials presented in the first two movements of the work. The simultaneous presentation of known and unknown sound materials in each scene challenges the listener’s preferential bias, experiential knowledge and relationship with their environment.
