3b

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Ioannis Kalantzis' 3b. The composer used the bassoon in a rather post-classical way. The composer also used characteristics, which functions as a point of reference, by replacing a melodic subject with a single minor 3rd interval. Furthermore, the sentimental content that an interval expresses was explored. Such as, a minor 3rd (with a grace note-pattern), while giving different colorings around the content of this interval. The electroacoustic material comes entirely from bassoon sounds.

Alma latina

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Rajmil Fischman's Alma latina. The composer has this to say on the background of the piece, and of this piece itself: Time is a strange background against which our lives develop. Linearity is usually out of the question and memory cunningly warps and re-invents our past experience to such an extent that the latter becomes alive, threading between past and future. It has been forty years since my personal thread started, more than twenty since I left the birthplace and a long time since my last visit. During all this span - especially after leaving and finding other homes - the conglomeration of conscious and subconscious moments bubbled out, combined with new experiences and created labyrinthine inner passages in which sounds, images, smells and other sensations from different periods mixed and evolved into new forms. Music which was previously dismissed and undervalued suddenly acquired a new significance. Strong images of pain and joy amidst the contrasting richness and poverty of a South American city became representative of a historico-political situation. Taste and scent of food, combined with the physical sensation of dance movement, turned into cornerstones of thought about the essence of human condition. All of these are …

Aniox

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Daping Qin's Aniox. A fantasy surrounding the theme of animal voices, Aniox is an exploration of the musique concrete bridge between music and noise. Four animal voices are treated as instruments: sad cock, cheerful dogs, innocent birds and angry lions. The main role is played by the roster. The work falls into two sections. The first section develops from the statement of the rooster's plaintive whine to an innocent birdsong and gradually changes to a deep sigh. After a brief pause, the opening drumbeat recapitulated to lead the same material through rhythmic variation toward the second section's climax, led by the lion's angry howl.

Añoranza de lo Dionisíaco

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Teodoro Pedro Cromberg's Añoranza de lo Dionisíaco. The title references to the importance of sensorial experience (dionis’aco) in concrete music creation, opposite to the microcomposition in the land of sonora synthesis, that is more rational (apol’neo). In this way, both working modes are contraposed all over the piece, though clearly limited sections with short silences or for the clear identity of different sonorous-musical materials. The last section highlights the characteristic motives of the piece in textual or variegated mode.

Arkheion, les voix de Pierre Schaeffer

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Christian Zanési's Arkheion, les voix de Pierre Schaeffer. The composer has these remarks on the creation of this piece: In 1996, on the initiative of the Experimental Music Group of Bourges (GMEB), around a hundred composers paid tribute to Pierre Schaeffer. It was on this occasion that I composed a short, outdated waltz, the theme of which is childhood (it is said of Pierre Schaeffer that, when he was a few years old, he would have written a 'treatise on the hoop'). Later, I continued: the railway, the sound object, the single man, relativity in all things to evoke this multiple man who played with all registers and all voices. So many faces which, superimposed, draw a single form. As for Arkheion, the words of Stockhausen (1995) I composed this work from archives (from the Greek, arkheion). Karlheinz Stockhausen was a kind of distant and inaccessible angel, the ideal situation. I had only used one spoken document then. For Pierre Schaeffer, who is closer to me (I took his classes at the conservatory and produced several radio programs with him) I took, here and there, fragments discovered at random in the considerable mass of archives concerning him.

En Babel éclatée

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Michel Karsky's En Babel éclatée. Mourning waltzes around Besieged Babels. The man is in the world. And the creator is not exempted from being in the world with the full enjoyment of his faculties of intelligence and sensitivity of intimate and collective memory, echo of history and art. In addition, when he is a musician, the sense of dance works on his sound material until he imprints an irresistible program on him. How can a frail waltz subject become a song of mercy for a wounded humanity? How can an armful of the languages ​​of the earth bear witness suddenly to the history of human life, to their pains and their songs? How is the sensation amplified in the painful exchange in the attentive listener, open to the message of the things of the spirit, the resonance of being as cradled as a child, subjected to madness, wounded by history? With his personal writing, Michel Karsky once again takes up the challenge. His aesthetics of fragment, collage and superimposition, his subtle technique of intertwining themes and sound material, his lyricism of captured sounds, torn voices and his singular breathing produce here, in about thirty minutes, a block of …
