The performance of «BREATH» composed as a sort of correspondence to the Samuel Beckett’s theater piece with the same title. It is an Opera piece composed for solo flute based on audiovisual breathing language developed by the flutist and performer Avital Cohen.
Light as an important aspect of a piece is observed both in Beckett's text and Gasimzada's music. Beckett indicates specifics of lighting for his theater piece, Gasimzada on the other hand takes that idea and sort of materializes it by applying those specifics to the sound of the flute.
The text will be occasionally audible and not, depending on the musical material that it comes with at the certain moment.
