about

The piece 'COMPOSITION for voice performer' is a composition with regards to vocal performance which is improvisational. Here I use the theme of "composition" based on the assumption that the "composition" can reproduce the essence and nature of vocal performance where the performer intends.

First of all, I request that the performer is conscious of the specific configuration of her/his improvisational piece in performance. Recording each performance separately several times, the performances may be the same piece of music, as the performer aims for such consistency. However, this can not be entirely possible as the voice changes in accordance with physical and mental conditions and structural vagueness in the music and so on. The more abstract the music, the larger the difference will be. I compiled the recordings as layers, thus having a collective "composition" reproduced in this piece.

Through this work, I believe that the essence of the "composition" as intended by the performer and the subtle variations and detailed transformations that come with each different reproduction will be obviously apparent.

'COMPOSITION for voice performer'は即興的なヴォイスパフォーマンスをテーマとして扱うものである。

まずパフォーマーに、ある特定の演奏構成を意図してもらう。つまり演奏行為として、目標とする演奏の性質が再現可能であると想定された「発声による演奏」を考えてもらう。つぎにその演奏を数回繰り返し個別に録音する。録音された演奏は、演奏者が目標とする「パフォーマンス作品」という意味で、何れも同等な作品である。しかし、当然即興と言う抽象性の高い演奏であるから、毎回微細な違いが生じる。

最終的にこれらの録音素材を編集段階で幾つも重ね合わせる。この作業を通して'COMPOSITION for voice performer'では、演奏者により意図された「パフォーマンス作品」の性質と、再現ごとに発生する細かな変化が明示されるであろう。

この作品はヴォイスパフォーマーである吉田アミのために作曲した。

Who would have imagined Federico Durand as an appearance here (Third Dream)? The collaboration is enchanting. Federico has a way with abstract but deceptively simple, nearly melodic single note patterns. That combined with Stephan’s multilayered drones…it just works at every level. Richard Erickson
