Moonflower During the Day - A collaboration between Miguel Àngel Camayo and composer Daniel Gall
Moonflower during the day - February 2022
Welcome back, fellow travelers! This month we go to Bogotà, Colombia, with filmmaker and screendance artist, Miguel Àngel Camayo, as he interprets the sixth movement in my Oatmeal Counterpoint series for two clarinets, recorded by clarinetist, Hannah Gobbett. As always, I'm your composer-host, Daniel Gall, reaching out to performers from around the world in order to collaborate on a new screendance project each month. This month's offering is an expressive piece that speaks of longing, and makes me think of a sad music box. It reminds Miguel of the moonflower, which blooms only a few hours once a year. He describes hearing my piece as though waking from a long dream, living and discovering the world, and then going back to sleep again. I hope you enjoy our collaboration!
