Transits élémentaires
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Francis Dhomont's "Transits élémentaires" ("Elementary Transits"). The piece is a question of a crossing that could be compared - very modestly - to that of Dante's Virgil. From fire through air, from central magma to the high layers of the atmosphere, the traveler crosses through then Alice's looking glass. The perception then becomes mental. At the formal level, the piece has five concave movements, all of unequal duration articulated by a constantly varied pattern, a sort of hinge. The piece was realized in Dhomont's personal studio as well of the GMEM (Centre National de Création Musicale) in Marseille for the synthesizer sound materials.

Eq
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Jonty Harrison's Eq for live saxophone and tape. It is the third in a series of works that features saxophones. This piece like the others, is also concerned with 'cu' (here made manifest by the interaction of live saxophone and recorded sounds on tape), 'Q' (a filter is used to sweet the producing melodic material out of static harmony) and spatial articulation. 'EQ' is studio slang for 'equalization - a more sophisticated version of the treble and bass controls on a domestic hi-fi system and a fundamental device for sound modification in the studio. EQ was commissioned by John Harle with funds made available by the arts Council of Great Britain. It received it's first performance in the Purcell Room, London in November 1980. The tape was produced in the Electronic Music Studios of the University of New York and the City University, London.

Inspiravit aeolus
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Pierre Barbaud's Inspiravit Aeolus. During the months of July - August 1979, Barbaud did his holiday homework on the island of Panarea, which is part of the eight Aeolian Islands in southern Italy. The title refers to the character Aeolus from Homer's Odyssey who is the Keeper of the Winds. In the hours of siesta, he blows with great gentleness on the bougainvillea; this is the inspiration for all of the algorithms in the piece. After returning to Paris, Barbaud asked Frank Brown and Geneviève Klein to provide the sound sampling program in data that did not provoke violent attacks. A poor telephone transmission during a first experiment, was the cause of a crash that did not lack beauty. The following communications were normal, and everything from those transmissions were kept in the piece.

Suiana Wanka
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Fernando Condon-Garcia's Suiana Wanka for tape. This work collects and develops independently the materials of a music scene for Peter Shafer work "The Royal Hunt of the Sun". It is based exclusively on sound recordings of various Latin American instruments such as the Indian flute, pincuyos, sicus, tarkas, mohecenos, various kinds of percussion, etc., to which are added, during some passages, instruments from European culture (organ, flute, bass). The original sound was made in a professional studio, and the final realization was made in ELAC, a small Montevideo studio, with the technical assistance of Carlos Da Silveira.

De Inwerking
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Joost Van de Goor's De Inwerking ("Influence"), which refers to a sign from the book of changes, I Ching. It refers specifically to the 31st hexagram which is based on the image of water, a small like on a mountain. In the piece, the clarinet (water) is looking for contact with the soundtracks (firm and unmoveable). The soundtracks were made by manipulating recorded clarinet sounds and composed using chance operations (using dice and coins). It was recorded in the electronic studio of the "Brabants Conservatorium" in Tilburg, The Netherlands.

Neap Tide
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Jaap Vink's Neap Tide. Neap Tide is the last part of the bigger work "Tide" and can be considered an independent composition. Tide is based on Vink's preference for recursive processes, which stemmed from the fact that the material is directly accessible to the composer who can therefore stimulate the expressivity of the sound. While sounding complex, recursive sound means sound and its derivative can be, if desired, recorded on top of each other in one action so that the sound structure becomes more or less closed. This depends on the external intervention of the composer. The derived sounds provide the coloring. This coloration can happen quickly or slowly. For "Tide," Vink chose the latter because the tide is also a relatively slow process which requires about 6.5 hours for completion. In order not to try the listener's patience too much, "Tide" is about 45 minutes long, "Neap Tide" being the 20 minute ending section of the work.

Gwendolyne descendue !
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Bernard Gagnon's "Gwendolyne descendue !" for tape. Gwendolyne is an underground comic character from the 1940s. Read first glance, her adventures only seem to be excuses for exploring the possibilities of bondage, but the unity of style pervading even the smallest symbols and the obstinate repetition within the strict limits of a closed world gives them an esoteric aspect that inspired the piece. It tells the story of the forced disappearance of the heroine. The piece is dedicated the Gwendolyn's creator, John Willie.

Quadratwellenklangwurst
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Martin Sierek's Quadratwellenklangwurst. The piece is based on micro-intervals through the use of square-wave oscillations. These exact intervals were only achievable with a digital rectangle generator. In the composition, the higher pitched parts of the two harmonies are fed to the cohesive basic tones and a whole sound becomes a glittering sound spectacle. The intervals and the number of individual rectangles constantly increase during the composition and generate acoustic phenomena and end in a cluster. The only "ordinary" intervals, a big second after and then a minor third, are just decoration.

Ice breaker
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Kevin Jones's Ice breaker. Jones had just traveled from Helsinki to Stockholm by boat across the frozen Baltic Sea, which had been made more difficult due to a strike of icebreaker crews. During the crossing, the magical and mysterious sight of distant plains of ice reflecting the ship's searchlights contrasted strongly with the occasional violent thrusts of the bows ramming into thickly packed ice. The "ice breaker" concept also extends into the interpretation of breaking ice in social relationships. The piece builds up into a succession of waves or thrusts, which eventually break through into a teasing catharsis. A doubtful release unravels in an extended coda. It was realized at the studios of EMS (Electronic Music Studios) in Stockholm, Sweden in March 1980 on a PDP15 computer employed to control a bank of oscillators.

Slow Dance on a Burial Ground
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Stephen Montague's "Slow Dance on a Burial Ground." Inspired by multi-traking and over-dubbling in pop music. Montague plays all various individual parts on folk flutes and log drums, playing at various speeds and other manipulations in an electronic studio to create at virtuosic product, even with modest skills on the instruments. The piece is an exploration in "Romantic minimalism," with its monthematic unfolding of a melody in the dorian mode and static harmony, but also with 18th/19th form influence.

Scythia

Recording of Stephen Montague's Scythia for electronic tape. Scythia was a region of Central Eurasia in classical antiquity encompassing parts of Eastern Europe east of the Vistula River and Central Asia, with the eastern edges of the region vaguely defined by the Greeks. It was thought of as the great land of education. It was also the place where Prometheus gave fire to man and where he was confined to be tortured by the gods for this. Every day an eagle came and tore out his liver and every day he endured.
