Cricket Voice

Description: Cricket Voice is a musical exploration of a cricket, whose song I recorded in the stillness of a Mexican desert region called the "Zone of Silence". The quiet of the desert allowed for such acoustic clarity that this cricket's night song-sung coincidentally very near my microphone-became the ideal "sound object" for this tape composition.

Cumulos

Description: This piece has been conceived from a basic idea, the result of astronomic observations of galatic cumulus. Paul Couderc, in his book "The Universe" (PUF, France 1955) asserts that it has been long observed that galaxies tend to go together in small groups. Later, he says, one has noticed the existence of two or three dozens of large cumulus which amass galaxies in very thick formations, by the hundreds and even by the thousands.

Design for an Invisible City

Description: Design for an Invisible City, composed in the Spring of 1987, was inspired by Italo Calvino's book Le città invisibili. In Calvino's book, Marco Polo entertains Kublai Khan with descriptions of the cities he has seen on his travels: cities exotic, mysterious, fantastic. Design for an Invisible City refers to the portion of the book in which Marco describes the city of Valdrada, a city built on a lake, so that there exist two cities; both the city itself and its mirror-image in the lake. Marco d… more

La Disparition

Description: "I see as a whole a convulsion that involves the global movement of beings, ranging from the disappearance of death to that voluptuous fury which, perhaps, is the meaning of the disappearance". Georges Bataille "What will come out of old times" Jean-Luc Godard From a stylistic point of view, it is the orchestral character that predominates in this work, as much by the richness and complexity of the tracks, as by the color of the sound. From the technical point of view, sounds, of acoustic or… more
