Instrumentation: for male choir (min. sixteen singers)

Texts: Roberto Succo

The condemnation to life with all its difficult to digest contradictions is the topic of Roberto Succos poems and the basis of this piece. Its coordination without a conductor and its demand for the highest and deepest tones and plucky soli parts make it a demanding piece for the choir. Dedicated to the Zurich Gay Male Choir and supported by the SME Lucerne.

Manuscript

Instrumentation: for altus, bass clarinet, double-bass and piano

This piece, without text, was written for the altus Luiz Alves da Silva. It works primarily with oscillating, non transition forming elements such as register change, upbow - downbow, to and fro movements etc. Continually changing parameters such as dynamics and tempo transitions are to be avoided in so far as they are not induced by the instrument or the human being itself.

Duration: 8' 00"

CHF: 20.00

Instrumentation: for violoncello, double-bass, baritone saxophone, bass clarinet, two tenor-bass trombones and two percussion

An initial piece based on repetition in such a way that the repeated elements, located on many different levels, are not always immediately recognizable. This gives the impression of a loosely fabricated form. It is sonorously very soft, with lots of sounds and lots of interlocking rhythms. Requires a conductor.

Duration: 20' 00"

CHF: 34.00

Instrumentation: for violin and piano, with or without amplification

This open-form piece (with three piano and twenty eight violin parts) in techno-tempo, can be assembled in accordance with the performers own preference for bodily movement. Because all the violin parts must not necessarily be played it can, to a certain extent, be adapted to the performers technical skills. In opposition to music in the disco, upon which it is based, the non-amplified version is almost inaudible. This work takes as its central theme time related categories such as duration, pulse, metre, rhythm, continually questioning and changing them.

Instrumentation: for guitar quartet

Not only the musicians are connected in a very tight, quasi-breathless time structure and intimately interwoven quartet movement, but also the musical form, which, with its ever-changing background also looses its unique identity.
For the 'Aleph Guitar Quartet'.

Instrumentation: for female voice, flute, oboe, violin, violoncello and piano

Written for the ensemble 'pre-art' for the 1700 anniversary of the Christianisation of Armenia. Text (mostly spoken) and music refer to the processes of memory and remembrance (resp. forgetting). Formally it is a triple duet (fl/vn, ob/vc, voc/pno) and is, as usual, situated on the rather extreme sector of sound production.

Duration: 18' 00"

CHF: 34.70

Instrumentation: for flute, oboe, clarinet and accordion

A piece about pitch, almost about melody. But certainly so that the borders between identical, similar and different dissolve leaving one finally hearing melodies where no melodies exist (?).

Duration: 19' 00"

CHF: 22.70

Instrumentation: for four large drums with auxillary instruments (four players)

A permanent accellerando, an initial eight bar metre is compressed into 2 1/4 notes at the end. Rather quiet - the membranes should be stroked rather than beaten. For the percussion art ensemble, Bern.
