Des ombres de la nuit
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Rainer Bürk's Des ombres de la nuit. The composer went to the Frauenkirche in Esslingen together with organist Christoph Bossert to record sounds from the organ of the church. They treated the organ in many ways, the results mostly sounding dark and uncanny, just like the atmosphere of the environment. There was the clatter of the action and the pedals, the howling and whistling of the organ-pipes. The piece wants to re-create some of the eerie atmosphere in the dark, lonely and cold church.

Stasis
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Charles Nichols' Stasis. This is an interactive piece for soprano, MIDI violin, computer programming, and sampler. The count of steps on the MIDI pedal tells the computer which section to perform, while the pitch information received tells the computer which gestures to perform. The gestures are preprogrammed, but in some instances the computer randomly chooses the length or speed of the gesture, or the ordering of the musical material within predetermined limits. The computer drives a sampler which is loaded with samples of the soprano mixed and convoluted with samples of the violin.

Recording of Thomas Gerwin's DingKlang-Klangding. Made up of 3 Preludes (the sound of a book, the sound of a salt box, and an apple).

Acéré
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Alain Basso's Acéré. The intention was to create a piece about war. Different object sounds were recorded in the studio, to have a wider palette of percussion sounds. The idea is that these percussions gradually change. As in the repetition of a 'kata', a movement sequence in martial arts, the concentration becomes more intense and the sounds increasingly sharp, by playing on the harmonics they contain. To give a feeling of space to this movement, transformed soundscapes create an atmosphere with a progressive opening and a greater perception of the human presence.

Chants Sphériques
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Patrick Ascione's Chants Sphériques. This work exploits the mobility and successive metamorphoses of characteristic spatial figures. The sounds move according to various configurations specific to their meaning, but also inside these "frames of spaces" already in motion, or sometimes even outside these frames. Sound is therefore here to space, what color is to form for the painter. Original version is for 16 speakers.

Embrassement
Access:

Recording of Jean-Michel Rivet's Embrassement. This work is for electronics and manipulated pre-recorded sound. The composer wrote a poem, which is depicted by the acoustic environment: Snatching fire from the purple clouds, lightning shoots from the heights. In oblique, it crosses the sky dotting the countryside with light. Flames and torches crawl under the trees, on all sides there are only scarlet cracklings, tawny cracklings, silver stripes. Ever-changing reflections glow the horizon: It's the conflagration.
