Twelve Ton Rose (1996) is the second work in Brown’s music cycle, which she initiated in preparation for directing operas. The title is a whimsical play on twelve tone rows, a compositional device developed by Arnold Schoenberg and used extensively by Webern. A series of lush ensemble pieces, duets, and solos, the choreography has a deliberate yet poetic relation to the musical structures. Brown and her company, like Webern, exhibited a profound interest in redefining contrapuntal expressions. Brown noted how the music dissolved in and out and used that as inspiration in her choreography, at times filling the silences and animating stillnesses. With no single set of easily recognisable movement phrases being continually referred to throughout the work, as was often the case in Brown’s prior works, the choreography reflects Webern’s tendency away from a tonal theme and towards abstraction and lyrics.

IN THE BREAK

PERSONAL WORK (from outside the curriculum)
Dear Deer

Unreachable distance from the heart even if I stand in front of you- can you hear me? Can you touch me? Protrusion from the heart as self-defence; thistles and thorns as weapons; come closer, get hurt, collapse, until we reach.

Talk! Public
(not really a public talk) #1

Conversations between generations
As a generation who is about to enter the professional field, we are bringing together past students who were in this same position a few years ago. For some of us this might be a first encounter with them, and this meeting might bring up discussions about our concerns relating to the past, present and future.
