about

“meditations on auxin” is interdisciplinary artist Yaz Lancaster’s first release with ppr, and combines just a few of the many mediums they simultaneously pursue. The piece is a lyric poem, with both music and text composed by Yaz, and takes an approach reminiscent of an older style where the performer may express personal thoughts and emotions while accompanied by a stringed instrument. While in the times of ancient Greece that instrument would be a lyre, Yaz rejuvenates the genre with the electric guitar. Written specifically for composer-performer Andrew Noseworthy, “meditations on auxin” takes inspiration from the ambient, electronic and heavier rock styles in which the guitar often exists, while also recontextualizing fragmented lines from preservations of ancient works.
