SEEN AND HEARD INTERNATIONAL: Spotlight on Joseph C. Phillips Jr.’s mono-opera, The Grey Land
BY RICK PERDIAN
“Phillips describes his composition style as ‘an organic fusing of various elements from many different influences forming compositions that are personal, different and new’. The Grey Land is all of the above, but much more. It is one man, with an extraordinary grasp of history and the present, attempting to make sense of the world in which he lives and expressing it a kaleidoscope of emotions and sound.”
