Divisio Spiralis X (2019)

"Instantes" (Instants) seeks to be a collection of moments of introspection. Perception of the body, of the world, of time. "Listen to me with your whole body," Clarice asks. 

Clarice Lispector's text, taken from "Água Viva" (adapted), is read by Tiago Boto, Nuno Veiga, Juliana Campos, Sara Marita and also by myself. The sound material that gives life to the piece comes mostly from these voices, and all the narrative constructed has the purpose of serving absolutely the text, either in episodes where the word itself is sound, or in episodes where the sound serves the word in an almost madrigalesque way.

This piece is also the result of a range of influences from several composers who inspire my work. Particularly Annette Vande Gorne, in the way she composes voice and text, and her research on space as a musical expressive parameter in acousmatic music; Jaime Reis, in his search for polyphony of gestures and spatial movements; Elizabeth Anderson whose complex textures of the pieces "Les Forges de l'Invisible", "Solar Winds" and "...and Beyond" appear in my piece as a support to Lispector's narrative. And also Luciano Berio, who in "Visage" gives us the voice with a true musicality.

Program notes

This piece is part of a cycle of pieces denominated Fluxus. In dimensional analysis, a dimensionless quantity is a quantity without an associated physical dimension. For this piece, musical processes were created in order to obtain layers with different physical (sound) qualities, where the dimensions of the sounds of the voice and flute are combined, resulting different qualities of perception. The rhythm is characterised by transformations of cells which are often complemented by secondary simultaneous rhythmic transformations on the voice, whose melodic and harmonic content is derived from processes analog to the referred transformations. Each subsection of the piece comprises a cycle of transformations, often expanded or compressed, where a dominant sound characteristic and type of transformation is to be perceived.

Fluxus, Dimensionless Sound (B) by Clara Saleiro

N'vi'ah is an Old Testament word meaning prophetess. 
A prophetess conveys one or more divine messages often in the form of inspired songs. And many times her words are cryptic, requiring interpretation or even translation. This work uses isolated phonemes as musical material. Intelligible words are not articulated, leaving to the listener the imagination of what their contents and meanings could be. N'vi'ah was commissioned by the Ibermúsicas Project, and composed at the Human Interaction Laboratory - Diego Portales University in Santiago de Chile. It is dedicated to Federico Schumacher.
