Le tombeau de William Byrd

Description: Looking for the fusion between the path and the band "le Tombeau de W.Byrd" attempts to contrast the instrumental character of Byrd's pieces with the various identities of electroacoustic music. Thus, the two writings do not meet, they coexist: one is a point of definition of the other, one is necessary for the existence of the other. Separated by small harpsichord pieces from William Byrd's "Battle", five electroacoustic sequences offer a journey into the world of loop music. Would "Tombeau de… more

Tremola impressao

Description: Recording of Rodolfo Caesar's Tremola impressao. This piece is a mix of disparate languages: instrumental music, sounds of nature and electroacoustic music, resulting in a different kind of electroacoustic music. The material originates from earlier works, not always Caesar's, but manipulated to make it different. He tried to make useful the sounds that were condemned trash; without any comparison with "Fontana Mix" by John Cage

Vortex

Description: Recording of Denis Smalley's Vortex. "Vortex" centers primarily on the types of sound movements that suggest analogies and swirling images, sound objects, textures, and rapidly moving patches of sound, often around an axis. Such movements can evolve in a variety of directions: we can let them hover or play them. They may have a combined action or follow each other or be swallowed up by events of greater force. The sound events of various attacks, sizes and orchestrations give vocal points to th… more

Voyager

Description: Recording of Claude Fatus's Voyager. Using the possibilities of the MIDIM7 system, this realization highlights two classes of sounds that are different in nature: those of the vowel type (simple relation between harmonic partials) and those of the fricative type (complex relation). Use is made of the difference in amplitude and phase as well as the reverberation on identical signals to create a different displacement and localization of the sound event in the speaker space. The whole piece is a… more

Walking Bells

Description: Recording of David Porter's Walking Bells for tape. The piece is a tour through an environmental/concrete landscape. It is another variation on the "cumulative form."

Webs and Veils

Description: This work is performed on the Fairlight CMI with the output first processed by a Lexicon PCM 70 MIDI-controlled digital effects processor then by a Lexicon 224XL digital reverberator. The PCM 70 is in a "resonant chord" program, the 224XL is in a concert hall simulation program. With the exception of the glockenspiel, all of the fairlight sounds were created by extensive vertical layering of complex sampled sounds. These sounds, often as many as ten layers of orchestras, electric guitars, choru… more
