Fantasia su Roberto Fabriciani

Description: In short: the "support" on tape is a very capillary tension of the "Fantasia" for flute alone. The canon - in 4 parts - of the "Fantasia" is realized (here it is only a tale "virtual" and melodic point) by groups of four voices each; the most acute of the groups is a game of echoes with the same note as the flute alone. In addition, within the 24 parts, several sizes all specular shapes and three transpositions (1/3 of a tone each time). The three inner groups are recorded with a contralto flut… more

Farewell Variations on a Theme by Mozart

Description: "... no, it's not a joke, Sir. It's not a joke as it's not cinematic music from a sinister movie. It's my imperfect tribute to the perfect composer who was always capable of seeing things as they are: neither funny nor tragic, or if you prefer, funny and tragic at the same time. It is my tribute to his wisdom which - yes, I must admit - is difficult to attain. I always come back to Mozart when this trivial dialectic is too apparent in my life. This time I did the same. It helped me. It made me … more

Feed Dog

Description: The title refers to the name of the tooth-shaped device that, on a sewing machine, serves to advance the fabric. In this work, the different functions of a sewing machine are combined with the voice to create a contrast between the timbre qualities of a woman's voice and the industrial and metallic sounds, sometimes abrasive, of the machine. Voice and machine are assembled elliptically, sometimes dry and inhibited, sometimes smeared and hallucinatory to assert new meanings and signs. With the v… 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

Gene Cat Toad

Description: This piece is from a cassette and a series of performance work which I conceived of as an electroacoustical oral history -- what I was calling at the time, electroacoustic literature. These pieces were made up of several interlocking, obsessive, contradictory, and speculative narrations about living and working in San José, California as seen from some vague future. The future could be next week or it could be a thousand years from now. San José, like most California towns, started erasing its … more

Girare

Description: Material on the tape exposes continuous, rotative movement which we meet playing maracas when they are vertical and turned around axis. We have here a movement around and falling off of little grains from axis. That why title is "Girare" - in Italian "turn" ("twirl"). From here continuous, subtle disturbances and results from them dancing together in rhythm. In the percussion part, the idea of continuity gradually evolves.

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

Harmonica Septet

Description: This piece is written for three trumpets, two trombones, tuba and harp. Some electroacoustic transformations of these instruments enrich its texture with new sounds. The three movements form contrasts of each other. In the first movement alternate fixed and released rhythms / parlando-rubato-allegro. The second movement has a free texture. On the contrary, the third is a rhythmic and fast movement. The performers of the pieces are: Gy. Geiger, I. Trumpet / L. Szabo, II. Trumpet / I. Somorjai,… more

Images

Description: Images (composed in 1986) is based on the results of research into the perception of rhythm. For example, distortion of a composite rhythm at the beginning of the piece occurs because of unavoidable inaccuracies in the synchronization between performers. Yet another distortion occurs at the end of the piece when the performers are required to play with the tape in a rhythm having a period longer than the upper perceptible limit of synchronization, approximately 1.8 seconds. The soprano does not… more

L'Inizio

Description: L'Inizio is based on the "Big Bang" theory, on the beginning of the Universe, its expansion, the beginning of life (flute) till the appearing of man on the Earth (percussion sounds on the tape). The time scala used in the work does not correspond to the real time scala in order not to sacrifice the musical sense to the scientific reality.

Inori

Description: "Inori" was commissioned by the Nordic Institute for National Concerts on request by the Dutch/Icelandic cembalo player Thora Johanseed. The composition hardly deals with the dualism between the cembalo and the digital synth. The first being close to rigid in terms of timbre while the second symbolizes the opposite. Consequently, the basic lines of the piece deals with the transformation of the DX-7 from being an "instrument like" instrument (using the very typical DX-7 harp sound) and graduall… 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
