Mon 1789

Description: It's a piece between music and Hörspiel. It's the declaration of men's rights that inspired me. It is a view of the reflection of the French revolution in Germany (example: Friedrich Schiller). It's my own voice that gives the sound material. The quote at the beginning of the play is by F.Nietzsche after Anaximander: "From where things have their origin, towards this place they will have to perish ..."

d MnStR

Description: The piece describes the evolution of a compound universe of sound objects when influenced in multiple ways by different sets of structuring laws (state definitions). This universe contains a number of subuniverses, each of which is formed of a variable number of more elementary units. All of these levels may be considered as organic structures, for they describe whole-units through the relationships between the characteristics and the behaviours of their elements. The idea was to create a conti… more

Jasha Svetla Luci serene

Description: The composition Luci serene (Lucid Lights) is inspired by a renaissance madrigal of Carlo Gesualdo da Venosa. That is why some of the sound samples used in this work are vocal and choir samples. The using of sounds formed by different types of sound synthesis – additive, FM, fractal, etc. – supported colour vividness and contrast of particular music passages. Connecting effect processors at final modifications made possible to realize the movement and localization of the direction and spac… more

Les Douze

Description: At 12, French, of Russian origin, Jewish, I could carry my head up, believing myself protected from the shame of belonging to the camp of the executioners. At fifty, I have the bitterness of not having this good conscience. And the poor consolation of thinking that it would have been the same, if I had been born elsewhere, earlier, later ... The Twelve, this magnificent poem by Alexander Blok, written in January 1918 to testify of the Revolution (guided by Jesus Khristos -invisible-) is only a… more

Fatti non foste per viver come bruti...

Description: It has been composed and synthesized between March and May 1989. It is based on two typical musical situations: tension-waiting and relax-solution alternated in a formal enharmonic and arhytmic contest. Tension/relax is the dualistic engine of the world and in this case it represents the question and the answer, ignorance and knowledge. The work has been done using music languages (Cmusic, Music360) and commercial devices. Cmusic and Music360 implemented at DIST of Genoa University and at CSC o… more

Gaia

Description: Gaia the goddess of earth lost her power and was forced to exile. The human ingenuity is reaching a never seen limit. The existence of the earth is at stake. This work is based on violin, flute and electroacoustic system, the first separate melodies later fusing in transforming tones. Reflections and echo-effects vibrations are giving the final shape of the composition. The work is framed by the prologue and epilogue; the musical spirit of the prologue is enhanced elaborated, in the main part. … more

Procession

Description: Procession is essentially a slow march. I envisioned describing a slow-moving procession moving past a fixed location with an unrelenting motion toward a foreboding destination. The work is in three parts, with the faster midle section at twice the tempo of the slower outer sections. The piece is scored for three synthesizers in live performance. Two of them play a sustaining timbre, with a rich sound containing many harmonics. The original sound I used was a mix of stringlike and brasslike ti… more

Pathways

Description: Pathways seeks to explore ways in which two traditions of music making may come together, neither losing its own characteristics yet the two together creating new possibilities. I have chosen the medium of electronic interactions and transformations to explore the relationships and to develop common ground. There is so much in common in the wealth of the internal workings of the sounds themselves and at the same time a contrast in the traditions of performance practice. In Pathways I have attem… more

Evocaciones

Description: This piece was produced at Rapp's CEM Sound Laboratory. From the "Cuadros Sonoros", recordings composed by Judith Akoschky with "Cotidiafonos" (instruments of her invention built with daily objects), this work is approached with preexistent materials but without devaluating their strong evocative load. Diverse spectral transformations and temporary superpositions give rise to new evocative pictures in which sonorous images of a dream like character alternate with other "more real" as through i… more

Deep Mountain

Description: Prior to composing "Deep Mountain", I wrote, in cooperation with my professor, Keith Hamel, procedures in the "object logo" programming language which would allow me to experiment with digital synthesis on a Macintosh computer. Following the completion of many similar timbres (most being short and having metallic or pizzicato string-type characteristics), I loaded these sounds into the Sound Designer program, for further manipulation. From "Sound Designer", the sounds were sent to the Akai 5-90… more

Exile & Life Close to the Horizon

Description: The initial spark of the piece struck like lightning when, upon returning to Stockholm from New York, I read Joseph Brodsky's essay The condition we call exile. Though he speaks of authors isolated from their native languages, I recognized immediately many of my own experiences. Unprepared and defenseless, his words struck deep sympathetic vibrations, resonances, and gave a name to a familiar emotional weight which I had grown accustomed to addressing intellectually. I had never considered myse… more

Still Life with Piano

Description: "Still life with piano" began with the composition of a short piece for piano. The tape part was made by computer-processing the sounds of this piece while the solo piano part draws upon and extends these materials. The composer attempted to create a relationship between the two parts in which aspects of the same musical entity evolve in different dimensions. The computer acts as a kind of microscope, capable of vast distortions and expansions of time and spectrum, while the real piano persiste… more

Pour la Terre

Description: Pour la Terre is a "tone poem" whose title and, more abstractly, its content refers to concerns over the current condition and the future fate of the planet. The second section evokes a sense of anxiety, while the third may evoke a sense of doom. This work is in three main sections: an introduction, a longer second section which begins like, but expands the musical materials of the first section, and a shorter third section which serves as a sort of negative image of the main middle section.

That every limit in the universe is a sensation of slavery. That the remedies are out there, and they have what this music has of indifference for the astute guillotine, theme welcome for those who inert or appropriately absurd, contemplate the disappearance of what is foreign to them ".

Mémoires vives

Description: Memories ... The fascination since always for the musics of requiem. Not so much for the text besides, to which I do not adhere, only for a certain spirit, a certain depth. The subject itself is imposing and the composers have often delivered the best of themselves. So I redid the route from the Gregorian Mass of the dead through Ockeghem, Lassus, Cererols, Mozart and Berlioz to lead us to Fauré, Ligeti and Chion. You will see traces throughout my play, as a kind of tribute to people I do not k… more

Spessori e densità variabili...

Description: The piece expresses totally my aesthetic ideas present on the musical composition. It is a meeting point for some new technical possibilities offered by recent computer synthesis systems (such as granular synthesis) and their strong influence on musical thought and human thought. New constructive approaches in the sound field are needed: an inner life of each "sound layer" and the relationship between all things that suggest the composer turn his attention to the specifically acoustic dimension… more

"Capolican: the secret of fabrication, need to have brothers and sisters, but he has nothing more to ask of his mother, except that she is silent and disappears." Then following the advice of the Rooster, he creates the mold from which they will come out, content with his factory, what will he say? " Using flanges of the text of the… more
