Division of Time (2025)

For Cello and Yamaha Disklavier Piano

With optional choreography by Gandini Juggling

Commissioned by National Sawdust and VisionIntoArt

Duration: 60 minutes

Division of Time, an evening-length work for cello, Yamaha Disklavier™ piano and jugglers, features cellist Jeffrey Zeigler and London-based Gandini Juggling performing music composed by Eric Nathan with choreography by Gandini Juggling, in a celebration and exploration of music, movement, and technology. Structured in ten sections inspired by the numerals 0 through 9,Division of Time speaks about humanity and its relationship to numbers, weaving a dramatic arc that is both thrilling and touching, complex and visceral, poetic and humorous.

The work can be performed as a stand-alone work for cello and player piano (Yamaha Disklavier) or with choreography by the Gandini Juggling.
