Le grand silence d'un seul oiseau

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Will Eisma's "Le grand silence d'un seul oiseau" ("The great silence of a single bird") for tape. During World War II, a network of 40,000 km of trenches crossed South Flanders and the North of France. Still today, there remains part of these trenches as a long underground tunnel somewhere around Metz and Verdun. The composition represents an imaginary underground journey from Calais to the Swiss border, through the infernal moles, in the gloomy and frightening obscurity of this absurd war. The poem of Ab Van Eyk tells of these horrors: "Someone walks forward, slowly spitting out his lungs, while a bird pass near me, the gas ......... The night shows fiery angels, among the lights of the "no man's land "; until the twilight silence arrives, the great silence of a only bird, just before sunrise raspberry color." The piece was composed and realized in the studio Five Roses in April 1981.

Hymnen

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Max E. Keller's Hymnen ("Hymns"). This is the Radio Version of the piece which was broadcasted in 1979. This piece confronts the authentic account of a Chilean's experience of torture by the Chilean fascists by means of a collage of national anthems. Hymns and anthems from countries that directly supported the fascist coup (or indirectly benefited from it) are used as base material. At first, only fragments of hymns are presented, then they are processed as a whole, and finally they are put together into a new anthem. This demonstrates their interchangeability in their music and lyrics (therefore, they are used without text). The idealistic glorifications tilt in the face of reality in stark mockery. This is further articulated by the fact that between the individual texts of the collage, the Chilean hymn sings and unprocessed re-sounds. The chivalric song of the French Revolution is the cipher and historical source of all the promises of freedom, equality and fraternity that the hymns give, but history has not fulfilled to this day.

Play bach

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Mayako Kubo's Play bach for eight channel tape. Play Bach is mainly based on two elements: first, there is no fixed form and no fixed duration because the composition consists in a mobile-system; second, the sound material uses only the tones B (Si-flat), A (La), C (Do), and H (Si) in different octaves performed by three instruments and with the letters B, A, C, and H spoken with human voice. Because the eight tracks are combined using a mobile system, each performance presents different combinations and thus a different performance each time.

Son recif

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Jacqueline Ozanne's "Son recif" for voice and tape. This piece comes from a work on the myth of the sirens and includes texts written on this theme in their original languages. As the singer/speaker repeats the story, it is crossed by the sounds of these languages, by songs that cannot continue, as well as successive states of emotion. The electroacoustic tape plays a constant dramatic role: sometimes worrisome, sometimes reassuring, sometimes enveloping presences, it continually influences the interpreter in their vocal and dramatic production. The performance includes a video projection.
