Toru Takemitsu, Toward the Sea for Alto flute and Guitar
Alice Leßmann, Flute
Luis Spangel, Guitar
This live performance was recorded on October 21st 2023 at the LEONARDO Zentrum Nürnberg (Germany).
The concert was part of the "Orca-Songs" installation, during which various fragments of orca sounds were played and assembled in different forms. These are the background sounds you can hear in the video.
Since "Toward the Sea" was primarily inspired by the sea and the whales we performed a sort of duet with the recorded animal sounds.
