Contrepoint

Description: The different harmonic parts are gradually faded, in favor of masses of stamps that contrast in height. Micro-events punctuate them.The rhythmic part that follows is based on a new series, which in turn goes down to silence (13 ''). New micro-events occur and reappear the first series which in turn allows the melodic line to reappear.

Conversation

Description: This work was composed in 1985. It uses voices recorded in Japan and Thailand, hence the title of "Conversation", although the voices are generally used in a more musical than semantic way. The instruments respond to these voices in different ways during the course of the work, which also gives it a conversational character. This work can be considered as a continuation of "Orchestra" and "Ten Temperaments" in that the image of the sounds resumes the orchestra like a prototype. The recordings o… more

Corale quasi una fantasia

Description: "Corale quasi une fantasia" (or more correctly "Fantasia quasi une corale") was composed in July 1985 at the Electronic Music Studio in Cologne. My goal was less to compose a "work" or a "piece", than to do ten minutes that I would like, and if possible that you would like too.

Cuenca

Description: The result of a long stay in the city of Cuenca during the summer of 1985 and a reflection of various experiences. In the first place, the influence of the city and its impressive landscape is undeniable.

Deve essere tenuto lontano da fonti di luce

Description: This composition utilizes a lexicon of few simple elements (lexes) subordinated to compositional laws which do not reduce themselves to cumulative associations. They give to the whole characteristic features which are different from those of the single elements. A first set of rules is given by a well-defined ordering of low-level parameters, those which give rise to complex tones: number of partials, entry delay, relative durations, amplitude and spectral envelopes, attack rate, slow amplitud… more

Dorian

Description: A universe. Self-contained. Where timbre were the principal item. To force it into another state; apart; and let it, in accordance with its own laws, return to its rest; and then to begin to compose. Bend and vary, change and break. To alter some kind of perfection in order to attain something else. Two main items shared the conception of this piece: the possible richness in perception provoked by the duality: whole versus parts; and the possibility of mapping into musical events the behaviou… more

Ep'85

Description: As the title suggests, Ep '85, a sort of contemporary epic poem, is a work composed using original or prepared elements of traditional games, songs, and lyrics as well as various "models". 'pure electronics' which, in my opinion, is comparable to some kind of traditional music. The work deals with a "universal" epic thought and does not need translation of this lyricism despite their use. However, the composition includes both important parts and lyric episodes, just as in the epic poems of the… more
