Calling was composed by Calliope Tsoupaki (NL/GR) for me in 2015. The work is a musical expression of the fight against whaling in the exhibition of visual artist Fiona Tan. It is a lamento in which the sea, looking out over the ocean, plays an important role and personal sadness is expressed as well.

Calliope Tsoupaki: "you create a magical space with your sound, almost plastic, tangible and sensual"

Full piece (53min) 
https://fieschoutenclarinets.bandcamp.com/album/dronescape-65-oneirology-6

Dronescape 6.5 is the seventeenth in a series of albums, containing new Digital Symphonies by Oscar van Dillen.

Oscar van Dillen composition, electronics
Fie Schouten composition, contrabass clarinet, bass clarinet, A-clarinet, voice

Fie Schouten: “My contribution to Oneirology 6 is entirely improvised. However, this was not a spontaneous or unprepared process. I thoroughly explored the concept of oneirology and engaged deeply with the electronic soundscape created and composed by Oscar. The choice to begin with the contrabass clarinet, followed by the bass clarinet, and finally the A clarinet was guided by the emotions evoked while listening to the electronic composition. As intermezzi, I softly address the audience, starting with a definition of oneirology as a way to anchor the listener in the conceptual "world" of the performance. The electronics serve as both a comforting blanket and, at times, a veil of mist surrounding the instrument, which might perhaps be imagined as a lone wanderer, navigating this dreamscape.”
