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

Quête

Description: The composition comprises of two sections: In the first, the quest begins. Tension is built by the use of glissandos and timbric glides that converge and diverge from certain pitches never resting for long. The quest or searching builds up until its inevitable conclusion, finding, and in the rythmic aftermath the very simple timbric and pitch material to be developed in the second section is presented. The second section develops the rhythmic pulsations. They mix and interfere with each other… more

Screaming in the Sky

Description: The tape part is generated entirely from the recording and manipulation of sounds produced by an alto saxophone, giving a natural homogeneity between the live instrument and the tape. Many saxophone articulations were sampled on the fanlight and underwent treatment or the computer and were then ordered and controlled though the CML (composer page). At times, these were recorded (with DBX) unto the 29 tracks, and multi track reel (when complex testures were sequined) or direct unto the PCM. Edit… more

For John II - Retrospective Episode

Description: When you reach "the zenith of your life", you may be tempted to look at your past. Moving forward to the future is not easy. Reflections on the past can occur spontaneously without a particular structure, and by fugitive associations. Memories of various episodes appear unrelated. For Jon II is a piece where the main form of music is based on a similar process. The various parts of the piece seem to lack obvious connections and a clear structure principle for the whole piece. Small episodes or … more

Et Lydar

Description: Twelve months of electronic music by Gunner Moller Pedersen. And Lydar is a concept, an imaginary unity. Theoretically, we can define a year of sound as the distance that the sound travels over a year: 60 x 60 x 24 x 365 x 0.34KM = 10 722 240 KM. That's about 28 times the distance between the Earth and the Moon, but less than the light or other electronic waves that would do in 35.74 seconds. Sound is physically associated with Earth and Humanity, but its oscillations of the Universe, and it ma… more

Hapsis

Description: "Hapsis" is a cello room in its own right. This one indeed is present not only on stage, but also through transformations carried out using digital means, exclusive material of the band. These transformations are not radical, it was not for me, thanks to virtuoso manipulations to "reinvent" the cello, but on the contrary to constantly keep the imprint by the development of some of its characteristics. No unheard sounds, but the meeting between a cello and his double and a constant concern for b… more

Streichquartett No. 11

Description: This composition is based on a magic square, which is on a copper engraving by Albrecht Dürer, entitled "Melencolia I" (dated 1514) The figures 17 and 34, resulting from the different additions, represent in this magic square as well as in my composition of the structural values. Numbers penetrate the composition in multiple ways, take the foreground to disappear to become elusive, rise to the surface to fall back into the vagueness. But it is still the magic square of Albrecht Dürer, without o… more

It Moves... It Moves Not...

Description: It moves..., It moves not... is concerned with rates of change. The initial solo shakuhachi section opens with a ‘model’ structure which is continuously transformed to reveal the potential for change within the original form and a certain inherent resistance to this process. The tape part, realised at the Birmingham University Electroacoustic Music Studio, aims to reinforce or contradict the types of movement in the shakuhachi part, whilst retaining a degree of independence. Much of the source… more

La Chambre Blanche

Description: Dedicated to Hélène Berton Sound Production based on texts from Marie Uguay Voices (by appearance order): Marthe Turgeon, Jean-Pierre Matte, Marie-Claude Trépanier, Gilles Laforce. The reading of the used texts suggest the creation of "poetic characters" that are so many views, words, interpretations stemming from the poetry. These caracters, which are four in number, were confided to many different voices: actor or radio-speaker, female or male, natural or transformed, alone or multiplied. I… more

Kräftig und Bewegt

Description: This is a concrete piece made in 1986. The sound materials in opposition are a "crash" hard, metallic and a serious white noise. However all sounds derive from the same source which is the recording of a train. The ways of recording and the sound world alone, can be seen as a cordial greeting to the financiers of electronic music.
