In my improvised solo drone trombone performances I make use of extended playing techniques such as split tones and multiphonics in combination with electroacoustic elements. This half hour long performance evokes different imageries. At first, a shepherd's horn reverberates in the Alps. Standing with his back to the rising sun, the shepherd warns others of an impending storm. In other moments, a freighter ship, illuminated by a lighthouse, emerges from dense fog, its signal horn resounds across the sea. At times, echoes of alarm sirens haunt through a desolate landscape, though there is no one left to be warned. 



While oscillating between these sonic landscapes, this performance evokes feelings of dread, doom and inescapability accompanied by a shimmer of serenity. With this constantly evolving work I interpret and address how symbolic anthropogenic communicative sounds extend outward and become their own object within a spatial environmental context.
