Inspired by the book of Stanislav Lem, I tried to create a situation where the three players works like cells of an organism, who apparently has no goal or human logic/thought. What remains is a narration of tension and/or movement.
The score ask often the players to wait to certain synchronization situations (regarding speed of vibrato or glissando arrival points) to go on to or to continue with the next bar/gesture.

The piece displays an entropic elaboration of an initial cell, being variated in each instrument independently and so diverging more and more.
Each player has an incomplete score, where informations regarding the other players parts are sometimes missing or partially displayed, so that different kinds of synchronization will emerge.

Studio Entropico (2022)

The piece is about trying to communicate and to express different characters at the same time, four different "themes" are presented, cutted and mixed, and they develop superimposing their qualities, influencing and contaminating each other. 
Can the struggle to create a narration including all this views produce something else?

Imper_Sonate (quattro temi in cerca di) (2023)

Di_versions is a modular piece with intersections, that leaves the interpreter freedom to choose his path and so the external form of the piece. 
This piece has some relations with the work and Ideas of Pascal: the use of the Pascal's triangle for proportions, the material focused on air pressure in the Oboe, the philosophical concept of "divertissement" as diversion, distraction, from the unavoidable human condition.

Di_Versions (divertissement)

Original for 4 Channel 
The sounds are realised through granulation of my recorded voice.
Sketches form Xenakis Bohor are feeded to the parameter of the granulator.
Also, first try with Csound!

no,me...Auf_na(H)me_1(oHne) - Stereo headphones version

In A_Part, written with the help of the accordionist Rada Petrovich, the player has to manage energy and bellow's air in order to "keep it together", even if the hands are always further away then the usual and the musical ideas are sometimes fragmented, sometimes seem to drive away from the music.
