11 september transcript

11 september

Recording of Carl Bergstrøm-Nielsen's "11 september."

Diamant

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of John Elmsly's Diamant for electronic sounds. Diamant was composed in 1977, using a Flemish poem written and read by Chris Dries as text. Using a simple bank of tuned oscillators, a sequencer pattern to modulate an oscillator, and very simple tape manipulations to leave the words as intact as possible the work is intended as a meditative coloring of the poem. The tape was realized in the IPEM studio in Gent, Belgium.
