Content
Au Milieu is a paraphrase of “___”, an ensemble piece from 1979. “___” was written after seeing an exhibition of Rothko paintings which made me want to do something as focussed and intense. The term Au Milieu is used in ballet to describe exercises performed away from the barre. The music’s element therefore is danger, especially for the performer. © Gerald Barry
