NOT MINE! ORIGINAL IS PEPP PIZZA ON YOUTUBE

Pepp - Calendula (Flowers From 1970)

written for & premiered by the Attacca Quartet at the Phillips Collection on 04.20.21

note| Imago is a response to artworks that, due to the pandemic, I couldn’t see or interact with in real life. The distance from the pieces and the wonderful Attacca Quartet created something of a disembodied writing experience. Untitled & The Allusion of Gravity exist most clearly in my mind, illuminated and filled in by imagination & impression. However, I can’t draw on the memories or emotions of first sight, deep study, or sketching in their presence. What did translate over the internet and staring my eyes red at the laptop screen, was the musicality and impossible figurations of Linn Meyers’ and Alyson Shotz’s incredible works. Their limited materials, repetition, and sheer physicality of process made me determined to bring those presences into this new work and seek proximities. 

Repetition, for me, is queer — pushing to see a single moment from every angle, the desire to experience multiplicity, recognizing the capacity of objects to move in a thousand directions at once. I wrote to invoke images of physical creation with timbre, process, and shared materials. I strove to interact the motion of drawing with the smooth movement of a quartet of bows, of adding detail with pen or brush as dragging tightened hair. I saw the physicality and endurance of continuous motion, bowing or harmonics or strums or dense harmonies, as the bending and beading of a complex work. I sought the infinite shapes and implications of a group orientation towards sculpture or magnified square of mylar - in their overlapping vision, a new and beautiful object. A wider perspective.

Take a listen to our first ever Libra Mix! 

"As you know Libra Mix is all about interesting mixes - well Claire Milbrath from Montreal, Canada understands this which might explain why her gentle mix of relaxing film scores, orchestral pieces and instrumental pop songs will be the perfect listening experience all through this spring/fall 2016. According to Claire this mix is inspired by the John Carpenter film "The Fog" (1980) starring a young Jamie Lee Curtis. "

Libra Mix - Claire Milbrath

Von Claudio Monteverdi bis J. S. Bach umfasst das Album »Adoration« des Pandolfis Consort mit dem Countertenor Nicholas Spanos ein Jahrhundert barocker Musikgeschichte. Die Stilistik evolvierte innerhalb dieser Jahre, dennoch gibt es Gemeinsamkeiten: die ruhigen Schritte des Basso ostinato, das zarte polyphone Geflecht der Instrumente und die melancholisch stimmende, ergreifend klare Singstimme. Das historische Instrumentarium und die intensive Auseinandersetzung mit historischer Aufführungspraxis eröffnen dabei spannende klangliche Welten. Neben Monteverdi und Bach stammen Arien, Madrigale, Motettensätze und instrumentale Sonaten auch von weit weniger bekannten Komponisten aus Italien, Deutschland/Österreich und Polen wie Giovanni Felice Sances, Giovanni Battista Bononcini, Jan Dismas Zelenka, Theodor Schwartzkopff, Stanislaw Sylwester Szarzynski, Johann Heinrich Schmelzer und Francesco Cavalli. Nicholas Spanos studierte in Griechenland zuerst bei Aris Christofellis. Danach setzte er sein Studium an der Musikfakultät der Universität von Maryland (USA) im Gesangsstudio von Linda Mabbs als Stipendiat der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde von Athen fort; gleichzeitig arbeitete er dort als Assistent und erlangte den Magister in Gesang und Opernaufführung. 2013 absolvierte Nicholas Spanos einen postgradualen Lehrgang Lied und Oratorium (Klasse von Charles Spencer) an der Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien. Er nahm an vielen Meisterkursen prominenter Lehrer wie Kurt Equiluz, Delores Ziegler, Anna Tomowa-Sintow und Michael Chance teil. Nicholas Spanos' erfolgreiche Opern-, Oratorien und Soloauftritte wurden national und international mit äußerst positiven Rezensionen bedacht. Er hat häufig mit dem Venice Baroque Orchestra, Les Talens Lyriques, der Camerata Stuttgart, dem Clemencic Consort, dem Orchester 1756 Salzburg, der Griechischen Nationaloper, dem Athener Megaron Konzerthaus, den Staatsorchestern von Athen und Thessaloniki, dem Griechischen Nationaltheater und dem Danish National Radio Symphony Orchestra zusammengearbeitet. Das Pandolfis Consort wurde 2004 von Elzbieta Sajka-Bachler, Bratschistin und Absolventin der Krakauer Musikakademie, gegründet, um einem größeren interessierten Publikum selten gespielte Werke berühmter, zum Teil vergessener Komponisten näher zu bringen. Mittlerweile hat sich das Ensemble etabliert und wird regelmäßig zu internationalen Festivals in Polen, Österreich, Finnland, Spanien, Italien, Holland und der Slowakei eingeladen. Große Beachtung im Inland fand die Aufführung von Bachs »Johannespassion« im Radiokulturhaus Wien sowie der Auftritt beim Ö1-Festival »Italia mia« mit einer ORF-Live-Übertragung. 2007 bis 2013 veranstaltete das Pandolfis Consort in Wien einen eigenen Zyklus »Musik in der Deutschordenskirche« und seit 2013 ist Gastgeber für das Internationale Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber Festival in Wien. Das Repertoire des Ensembles reicht vom Frühbarock über die Klassik bis zur Moderne und umfasst auch zeitgenössische Kompositionen, die für das Consort geschrieben wurden. Das historische Instrumentarium stellt die Komponisten vor die reizvolle Aufgabe, ihre moderne Tonsprache zu adaptieren und somit neue Klänge zu finden. 2012 wurden Auftragskompositionen von Johanna Doderer (Österreich) und Stanley Grill (USA) sowie im Jahr 2014 in Innsbruck zwei Kompositionen des Tiroler Komponisten Franz Baur uraufgeführt. Das Pandolfis Consort konzertiert bevorzugt in seiner Stammbesetzung von vier Musikern, aber auch in erweiterter Form mit namhaften Sängern oder zusätzlichen Instrumentalisten. Die Besetzung des Continuo mit Theorbe und Violoncello trägt zur klanglichen Besonderheit bei.

Sacred Choral music of the Medieval and Renaissance periods were written as devotional hymns for those seeking solace and inspiration in a violent, troubled world. Saint Hildegard von Bingen who was an abbess, mystic and composer, spent most of her 80 years shut away in isolation, in an obscure hilltop monastery in the Rhineland. The songs she composed came to her in mystic visions, which she wrote for her nuns to sing at their devotions.  On today's new moon, let's take inspiration from the saints and set intentions to begin new projects today. Mix by artist Darby Milbrath
