Carousel

Chréode I

Description: Jean-Baptiste Barrière: "Chréode " is a borrowed term from morphology and biology (from the Greek "cre" it is necessary," and "Odos" path: Necessary path). It is used here as a metaphor for a systematic and intersecting investigation of the material and the organization. It is about my time of a generic title for a set of computer works, of which "Chréode I " is the first element. Although the materials are very worked, the attention in this piece carries more specialty on the organization. … more

Dialouge for Kendang and Tape

Description: The kendang is a Javanese drum. In Javanese music, the drum sounds are onomatopoetic, that is they are duplications of spoken language. An appropriate kendang player, however, will always tend to enrich his sound repertoire by imitating arbitrary sounds of the environment. My composition Dialogue refers to this. First the computer-generated sounds are introduced in an onomatopoetic way and imitated by the kendang player. Then the computer sounds develop in a way as to move finally far beyond th… more

Divertimento nostalgico

Description: "Divertimento Nostalgico / 4 Puertas", is an electroacoustic work. The variety of the language used characterizes it as divertomento, since in it very simple modal or tonal melody lines are interlaced in search of a more complex language or sound discourse. These lines or melodic games, are transformed at times into a material of great density producing and proposing a strange and different way of sound relation. At other times, traditional music emerges as an auditory need, as an act of repose… more

Exil, Chant II

Description: In this admirable poem, everything is included: rhythm, velocities, movements, spaces, materials, numbers and form. Music puts at the service of the text natural images / movements, their synthetic imitation and transformation chosen for their expressive character. Of symphonic character by the wide variety of sound sources, the mixing creates uniformized energy textures, of melted character, vertical, or, on the contrary, contrapuntal chains. Exile: moment of transition between two worlds ... … more

Fantasies

Description: Fantasies for Soprano Saxophone and Tape was written in 1983 for saxophonist Kenneth Fischer. It is dedicated to him and to the memory of Peter Tod Lewis. The music commemorates Lewis' wit and taste for the unexpected. Each movement addresses a different facet of his rich personality. The first movement, "Imminence," is a tongue-in-cheek serial work, involving grotesque tape sounds and robust counterpoint between the tape and the saxophone, resolving to an uncertain and hazy cadence. The secon… more
