Bringing new music to life. And making old music new again. Recording the score for Come Home. 🎶🌊
@instarobberman on piano and @robinzeh5 on violin performing a new arrangement of “Leave Her, Johnny.”
In the 19th century, it was tradition for this shanty to be the final working song to be sung by a ship’s crew after a long voyage, marking the end of their time together at sea. The sailors (or “Johnnys”) say goodbye to their vessel and their shipmates, put their journey to rest, and head home.

Breaking down a section from Two Ways Out: Shapes for Piano, no available to stream on Spotify and Apple Music.
This is from the fourth and final track “Converge” named after the new dance by @dcresc for which this music was written. And, fittingly, this is where layers of pianos and electronics all come together, converging in the finale after being broken apart into separate phrases.
Here’s a phrase of electronics, built from chopping and pitch-shifting a piano sample, that sounds just before the final entrance of two dueling pianos.

CBE + Thalian Hall, 13 years later! ❤️
Thalian Hall opened with dance 160+ years ago, and everyone from Ruth St. Denis herself to Paul Taylor Dance Company has performed on this stage. We’re honored to dance at Thalian once again — this time to the music of Eric Dietz and the songs of sailors. 🎭🩰🎟️
Truly cannot wait to share COME HOME with Wilmington audience TONIGHT at 7:30! If you don’t have your tickets yet, this is last call for now. 🌊

Really enjoying this soothing, atmospheric music for Come Home that will set the stage before the show begins.
🎻⛓️💥 + 🎹⛓️💥 + 🌊🐧
This was made by taking the main theme that we recorded on violin and its first variation, recorded on piano, and sampling them. Then those samples are broken down by a granular synthesizer that transforms the music into tiny fragments that are sifted and scattered like sand.
Add to that the sound of waves and seagulls, and it’s a day at the beach.

We are downright psyched to return to Catskill Mountain Foundation after residencies in 2009 (when we made American Sadness) as part of The Orchard Project and in 2017 (when we made Men I’ve Known). What a gift to have a relationship with a community across 17 years! ✨✨✨
We’re thrilled and honored to premiere Come Home at CMF with the support and partnership of Works & Process. Match made in heaven!
