Camille Norment, glass harmonica, electronics, glass and percussion mediums; Stephen Vitiello, electronics, glass and percussion mediums. Vitiello's glass instruments were designed by Alex Hayden.

Camille Norment and Stephen Vitiello come together in a unique musical performance created for the exhibition Soundings: A Contemporary Score 10 August - 3 November 2013. They take glass as the central source and focus for their score and instrumentation. Glass bells, glass marimba, glass armonica, sand, water, and associated mediums are used both for their own resonant properties and as materials moving fluidly in analog and digital realms. From sand to crystal to digital technology, ethereal beauty and dissonance meet the concreteness of the contemporary soundscape.

Norment's Triplight will be on view in the exhibition on the third floor of the Museum. Visitors can encounter Vitiello's work A Bell for Every Minute on the east side of the Sculpture Garden. In conjunction with the exhibition Soundings: A Contemporary Score.
