Composition
Born out of curiosity and an interest in performer-led music-making, Missing Pieces is a collection of 5 compositions, created by Gemma Bass, which intentionally have bits missing. Key elements of the music are left to chance or choice and put into the hands of whoever is performing them.
Parts 1-4 of this project open up these pieces for infinite involvement and interpretation, from deep intimacy and vulnerability to chaos and anarchy, the performances will be as individual as the people involved in them.
