Mettis Quartet - SSSH Diana Soh 1:3

The three letters “s” in the title refers to silence, solicitation and saturation - 3 portraits of an artist as a young mother. They say we need silence to create. But I reckon it is that necessary stillness that is hard find. We are always in demand, to the extent that our head-space is filled with the rhythms of daily mundane affairs, so saturated that it becomes an irritating hum, buzzing at the back of the mind. And in accommodating the needs of everybody else, the mother appears silent and still. This piece explores the notion of when to speak, when to move, what to say, what to do, and how to do it all. Every action becomes deliberate, every sound stems from action, and every sound begets motion. I do not want to simply listen the string quartet, I want to watch them dance. “sssh”, is commissioned by Festival d’Aix and ProQuartet and is premiered at l’Hôtel Maynier d’Oppède (Aix-en-Provence) on the 14th July 2018 by Mettis Quartet.
