La Confession

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
This work was created from a story entitled "The Confession" that I wrote in 1989. In Spanish originally, it was translated into Hebrew, French, English and German. Some of these texts in different languages have been integrated into the work. "Confession" records the psychological oscillations - from mental stability to madness or vice versa - that the protagonist goes through. "The Confession" of the human voice, the electronic instruments (synclaiver), the acoustic instruments (harp, trombone, cello, flute, percussion) and the concrete sounds create a semantic interaction with the syntax of the musical language.

Flurstück

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Ipke Starke's Flurstück. The composer denotes "Flurstück" as meaning a piece of countryside, a rural landscape (Flur), which is private property; this is important to a central theme of ownership and its interactions with natural environments vs more "technical" atmospheres. It is described as such: The background of the piece is the dismemberment of the landscape, the subdivided land. From this are born the images. Fields, travel, property, appropriation and expropriation, the battle, fields of march in songs of the consequences. The beautiful atmosphere is disturbed. The notion of ownership must appear in the title: we listen differently when we think of ownership. The composer's interest is in particular in the different silences that were recorded in the countryside in specific favorite places. Added to this are "technical" atmospheres, incidences and "hinges" which oppose natural environments, and which are a reflection and documentation of their confrontation, of the division of the earth. The very precise measurement of the landscape is transmitted to the structuring of the piece by precisely measured durations, unequal, rhythmic, but not insertable into a frame. After the journey through these images of boundaries and fences, and faced with this frustrating experience, the composer notes …

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.

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.

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.
