Hi everyone, here is a little video of the dress rehearsal for FIREFLY, a live flute performance coming up at The Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève.

I'm starting to get the hang of my set up and have played around with loops and effects, e.g. delay. tremolo, echo, pitch shift, whilst still wanting to retain the flutiness of the flute. I'm working my way through jazz scale theory. Today was all about the half diminished 7th. I've got miles to go, but really happy to see my musical confidence improve over the last couple of years.
On the night I'll have extreme hair and makeup created in collaboration with make up artist Chaïm Vischel. Expect black insect eyes, needles and horns :)
These copper and pearl wings and headpiece were lovingly handmade in my studio by Collette Vermeulen, who has just started a 3 month internship.
Toot toot! Goes the flute...
