Catherine Lamb & Rebecca Lane & Bryan Eubanks (Sacred Realism)—Prisma Interius IV
Bass flute, viola, voices, synthesizer; 60′
Catherine Lamb, 2017
Prisma Interius IV by Catherine Lamb has been developed both aurally and collaboratively with Rebecca Lane and Bryan Eubanks, eventually for open instrumentation of non-fixed pitched, sustaining instruments. This piece requires an aural transmission into the Secondary Rainbow Synthesizer (a simple digital synthesizer using bandwidth filtering of live sound fields outside the space). Harmonic material is filtered from natural sounds and breaths into the timbre and harmonics of the instruments and voices. Prisma Interius is a large series of 9 works for solo performer to chamber orchestra, all based around the interactions of the Secondary Rainbow Synthesizer with live sound fields and instruments.

Rebecca Lane explores intonation as a social and perceptual practice, focusing on just/rational intonation and the relational aspects of sounding/activating this material with others. Her practice is informed by ongoing relationships with composers (such as Catherine Lamb), collaborations (like distances bending with Clara de Asís), and various duos and ensembles (including Harmonic Space Orchestra), utilizing various flutes (in particular, Kingma System quarter-tone flutes).
