Lettre à une demoiselle

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Christian Clozier's Lettre à une demoiselle. This piece uses music written on a newspaper, a sheet, in an attic, in view of an open window on an impassive river, at a flowery table, around two o'clock in the morning, in a low voice, in memory of the companions of the Pleiad. There are three movements: draft, erasures, and post Scriptum. This work also uses sound samples and recorded sound to allow for the poem to reach full expression and character.

6 pièces avec voix

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Simon Jaunin's 6 pièces avec voix. For pre-recorded voice, percussion, and electronics.

In addition, a strong tension is created between the mechanical aspect of development and freedom of tone."

Himno a las lesbianas

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Jesús Torres' Himno a las lesbianas. This is an electroacoustic work that includes sound objects of the same type (news, voices, groans, etc.). These sounds create a collage that shows a distorted view of humor in a cumulative and destructive series. This series is linked to Schwitters' Dadaism, the notion of surrealist chance and the desire to dissolve the border between art and life. Overall, it represents the aesthetic of negation.

Opening a Can of Worms

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Lars Larsson's Opening a Can of Worms. The composer speaks of the process behind this piece as follows: Talking gibberish, stopping mid-sentence only to find I forgot what I was talking about, and saying obscure quotes to communicate are things I do a lot. The work "Opening a can of Worms" reflects this in various ways: a) regarding the sound, I tried to incorporate as many conflicting sounds as possible, something that nobody would normally use in this way musically; b) regarding the time factor, I wanted to create movement in the gestural clichés associated with electroacoustic music and instead leave the form of the work in its natural state (almost like automatic writing) and c) use the quotes with short snippets of old radio music, recordings, outside sounds, and myself for good measure, among other things. I also wanted to turn my back on most of musical history and continue making music the same way without being affected by it. Maybe it's an impossible task, but a good guy like me can try, can't he? Oh! the title? Well, I thought that would be a fitting title for my first official play - is it not?

Recording of José Iges Lebrancon's Seven minutes desert. This work explores the need to "measure everything" which is our way of exploring and experiencing the world around us.

The elaboration of the random sequences help fit the sound characteristics of the voice.
