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

Something to Say

Description: Even thought the composition doesn't conclude any concrete theme, I have decided to participate in the category C. The basic work of composition is visual imagination, in which the musical form is subordinated. That is why the basic form of the choregraph movement of the interpret on the stage is so close connected to the music. From the point of view of the musical confrontation of three elements, which flow into music conflict. The score of the solo trumpet and the music of the recorded trump… more

Sonnerie de l'Arc de Cercle

Description: This is the result of an exploration of writing in space, in this case for the speakers placed in an arc forming a sound screen of 150 'to 220' aperture. This piece is also the result of an exploration of electroacoustic writing. 6 movements the structure: 1. Opening, solatonic less than a minute. 2. Around rain, or shudder of a more neumatic writing. 3. Duo where the bottom engulfs the soloists to merge into the fourth movement. 4. Explosions, tears falling in tessitura. 5.

Oro, Argento & Legno

Description: Oro, Argento & Legno ("Gold, Silver & Wood") is once again a large-scale work, this time for flute (or rather for flutist, who is asked to play not only a regular flute but also an alto flute and piccolo) and computer. It is a virtuoso work requiring a great deal of technical precision and agility from the flutist who at the same time is given ample opportunity to display his powers of musical interpretation. The form of the pie… more

Breeding for Computer and MIDI Systems

Description: This is a real-time performance of computer. This piece's "Structure" (changing with time of the density of sounds, distribution of sound-frequency, character of the sound-space, etc) was decided by translation and adaptation of the results of Monte Carlo simulation about the ecological concepts -birth, growth, death, etc-. It's used here to suggest a systematic but multiply stimulated study of materials and their organisation. Many scales and tunings consist of re-construction of the frequenc… more

Pas de Voix

Description: When asked to compose a piece for an all-Samuel Beckett concert in Los Angeles (including works by Cage, Dodge and Gnazzo), I determined not to act a text of the renowned existentialist writer but rather to sample his voice and manipulate the recording to formulate the substance of the music. Upon learning that Mr. Beckett does not permit his voice to be taped under any circumstances, I proceeded to record the lobby of his apartment building in Paris, the open-air Metro stop across the street, … more

Metalmorphosis

Description: The piece uses a fairly wide variety of sounds made of metals as well as sounds from a SFU's Gamelan orchestra. Then on the compositional level it is based on the principle of movement from simple to complex, and vice versa, metamorphosing a stamp or texture into another in the process.

Action/Passion

Description: Recording of Annette Vande Gorne's Action/Passion. It is the result of a close collaboration where choreography and music were designed in interaction. The work is inspired by inner energy and its manifestation: movement. During the show, the dynamic movements of the sounds unfold in the space thanks to a spatialized interpretation. Music and dance play on very contrasting energies such as breaths, fluids, attack/immobility, attack/movement, rebounds, journeys, falls, crushing, rotations, oscil… more

Obeying the Laws of Physics
