Greg Oh and friends pre­mièred Halo Bal­let in Toronto on the X AVANT fes­ti­val in Oct 2010, but the video record­ing of the piece mys­te­ri­ously dis­ap­peared. Now it’s been found, posted below.

Gre­gory Oh and Toca Loca pre­mière my new piece, Halo Bal­let (Bipo­lar Dis­or­der NOS) on the X AVANT Festival’s all-dance pro­gramme. Halo Bal­let is a piece for live per­form­ers (piano, key­board, per­cus­sion, harp or gui­tar) and elec­tronic dancers, per­formed in real time within the Halo videogame environment.

The pro­gramme also includes works by John Oswald and Georges Aperghis.

A long-term pro­ject of mine is mov­ing for­ward this year. Tapes­try New Opera applied for and received fund­ing from Opera​.ca to pro­duce the first act of the opera I have been devel­op­ing with libret­tist, Colleen Mur­phy. We’ll be involved in round­table dis­cus­sions on the opera in Toronto this spring, and I will be com­pos­ing the music for one act of the opera, to be work­shopped at the Banff Cen­tre in August of this year. The act will then be fully pro­duced in the first part of 2010. More details to fol­low as they become available.
