...als ob's aus dunklen Fernen rief...

Description: "...als ob’s aus dunklen Fernen rief..." ("as if it was calling from dark remotenesses") was produced as a commission of the Hungarian Film Factory MAFILM in the Electronic Music Studio of the Hungarian Radio Budapest in March/April 1984. The title comes from the poem "Alone with the sea" by the Hungarian poet Endre Ady, which inspired my composition: remembrances that emerge from the eternal roaring of the sea. The time structure of the composition was derived from the Fibonacci-Progression 1,… more

Andromeda

Description: It is a mixed piece for percussion and electroacoustic support. This one was realized in 1984 at the Berlin Technical University Studio with technical assistance from Folkmar Hein. The CD interpretation is performed by percussionist Martin Schulz. From a formal point of view, the piece divides into two different parts. The first is a permanent game on acceleratins, with the evolutions of a serious bell-shaped sound as alternative of speech. The second feeds on the musical gestures of the first,… more

Aquí, allá en todas partes...

Description: Composed in own studio Fragments of "The Beatles" were utilized, selected by their characteristic turns, rhythmic plans, melodic lines, the processing of the voices or the orchestration. The fragments were modified through traditional procedures (cut of tape) and articulated according to diverse associative elements. The polyphonic superposition of the layer respects the tone Beatles's tone according to the sensitivity of the composer.

Arcanum

Description: Electronic compositions Arcanum [Secret] is based on a computer-generated score and a defined distribution function which were utilized in the construction of the compositions. They use precise tone heights in the microtonal interval systems on the basis of characterized tone clusters and alternating chords. Arcanum uses tone pitches given in frequencies in bound positions from 50 to 5,000 Hz. Couples of random numbers limited by the interval from a major second to three octaves became the fir… more

The microphone recordings are made in Arizona and California. The separation between concrete and synthesized sounds is not important any more in this piece. It is a play of imagination.

La chambre secrète

Description: La chambre secrète is the first piece for a 9-voice musical ensemble composed after the work of Alain Robbe-grillet. It uses a small part of original text, principally three fragements in evoluationary connection with the figure of man and his situation in space. These threeThese three fragments, in turn, cut up, exploded become generators of sound forms and also of new meaning. The structure of the piece is determined by the principle of moebius: closed loop on itself, but whose contained expl… more

Chicarra's

Description: "Chicharra's" is an ode to the Spanish landscape and the men populating this landscape. Sounds of nature such as the breath of the wind, the rushing of the rain, the rustling of the sea carry life in themselves. Thus the rustling of "Chicharra's", the cicadas, their singing narrative was recorded as a set of precious voices. These voices were sent electronically to the strings and then turned into new sounds. This process is comparable to that of instrumental music where the violin bow is coate… more

La cicatrice du geste

Description: Written for two analog, polyphonic and programmable synthesizers. This first sequence is a bit like a traditional sonata at the level of the spirit that governs the 4 movements that compose it as well as some formal concerns. However writing for synthesizers is a matter of instrumental design is typical to this instrument all that concerns the sounds used as the game modes, especially the systematic use of filtering as a game element or "montage" programmed sounds.

Dawn

Description: This is a work based on the idea of a studio filling an orchestra. The introduction is obviously a play on works by composers such as Copland and other works by contemporaries of Copland, a play that quickly demonstrates the power of electroacoustic music to deal with large and colorful sound patterns. The development of the material and the structure is clear. There is also an obvious relationship to "Minimal" music, in reference to the way in which certain small models are structured together… more

The Description of France

Description: This is a personal recollection of a Paris which I never knew. It is an anecdotal remembrance of Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier with more then a nod to Raymond Roussel and filtered through the radio of Jean Cocteau’s taxi. This is the Fourier of the mathematical memoir, On the Propagation of Heat in Solid Bodies, a somewhat controversial view at that time in which the author described the diffusion of heat by a partial differential equation which could be solved using an infinite series of trigon… more

Dialoghi

Description: It is not possible to describe in a few words a piece that does not have one, but many main ideas, all of them developed along specific trajectories sometimes independent, sometimes closely related. Several images are called to mind the quest for contact with the music, with the timbre, with forms and with poetry between the concrete and gestural sphere of the sounds made by the piano and the abstract, virtual area of electronic sounds. Dialogue and contrast, contact and rejection grapple in a … more

Eibbed

Description: "Eibbed" (Debbie spelled backwards) is a work that tends to unify classical forms with "created" structures thanks to the similarity of sound. There is no deeply philosophical thought behind Eibbed. The piece has instead been composed on "comfortable" (soothing) sounds for the ear, whether or not familiar with electroacoustic music. The sound sources are based on glasses (different sounds of 2 beer glasses that come in contact, friction, shocks, etc ...), a torn newspaper and electronic music d… more
