Emptiness – from GONE, a keyboard suite about loss
“Emptiness” ensues.
“Emptiness” is the fifth movement from the composition GONE, Craig Harris’ keyboard suite about loss.
The loss of a loved one is accompanied by intense emotional upheaval, filled with complex feelings and memories. The sense of loss can be interpreted more broadly, to include loss experienced through major life changes, even loss resulting from what we experience in the world of the COVID pandemic – loss of our sense of normality, our sense of human connection, potentially loss of income or physical/emotional stability.
GONE can be experienced as a work for live music and/or multimedia performance/installation, recorded music, and video presentation. Video imagery for each movement was created in collaboration with visual artist Candy Kuehn. The multimedia performance version of the work is designed to incorporate video projection into an immersive environment comprised of multiple hanging scrims, with a multi-channel audio distribution design. The project is designed to establish a creative and safe context for personal and communal exploration of loss.

The movements in the suite include Passing, Release, Nostalgia, Loss, Emptiness, Gratitude, Regret, Longing, Guilt and Freedom. Meditation: Earth and Sky is an electronic soundscape that serves as a coda to be performed with the suite in performance situations where a good quality sound playback system is available.
Craig Harris performed the music for this recording of GONE on his vintage 1898 Steinway B grand piano. The soundtracks are available for download in mp3 format (great for general music listening), or in wav format (high resolution listening and public presentation).
