In Aquas Scribis

Description: This piece is thought a a real "live electronics" work which should be interpreted not only by the bassist but also by the "mixer". Because the bass part has a place for individual interpretation, the mixer probably has to adapt to the prepared sequencer – parts by leaving voices or changing the relations of volume in between the "tracks". In this piece, I tried to use my musical youth and roots. I started to contact with music by playing recorder and listening all the music around me (my fathe… more

Refrains for Trombone and Tape

Description: In Refrains, three types of materials, characterized and differentiated by rhythm, melodic contour, pulse and contour, collide and interrupt each other. The trombone and tape parts work together to articulate the form and shape of the piece resulting in combinations and exchanges of their materials and energy. The tape part is based on three source sounds: trombone attack with Harmon mute; trombone sustained tone, open; double-bass pizzicato. Refrains was composed for and dedicated to, Martin H… more

Tremens

Description: The title of the composition is taken from a line by Cicero, "toto pectorum tremens" ("the whole breast trembling"). The main musical ideas in this piece are all related to the act of trembling as a response to some basic emotional state such as anticipation, fear, panic, exhaustion, etc. In order to expand the timbral palette of the pieced material, I have incorporated into the composition synthetic, unpitched sounds such as wind, breathing, and large, struck sheets of metal. During the course… more

Litanéa

Description: "Litanéa" is an anagram of Electroacoustic Litanies. An exaggerated desire for possession of articulated sound material (down to the microscopic level) is not without the risk of developing a rational, even scientific, mind. In music, this exaggeration leads to a state of mind that may dry up in his desire for absolute possession of the material. A certain part of the periodicity must be left to the music (which does not belong to the composer) otherwise the sound can not exist. Litanies are of… more

Gyuto: Resonances of the Divine

Description: Although composing a piece for tape in an electronic music studio involves a close relationship with modern Western technologies, I hope Gyuto evokes images and energies that submerge far and away the "high tech" machinery used in its performance. Inspired by the well-known Tibetan Tantric Monastery Choir Gyuto, this work generates itself abstractly Tantric spiritual beliefs and directly sounds created by the monks during their songs and rituals. The chants sung by the monks are used parsimonio… more
