RefractionsII_Clip

Using as initial material some passages of “Serenata per un Satellite” by Bruno Maderna, the piece explores the possible answers that this composer would receive from the alluded satellite.
Using recordings of melodic lines ‘alla’ Maderna (precomposed and performed by a subcotrabass flute, a corneto, vibraphone and violin), The recordings are spectrally mixed and recomposed, achieving traditionally musical passages with impossible, yet familiar instrument timbres. The whole piece attempts to serve as a rendition to Maderna, the composer and Maderna, the dreamer.
This piece was granted with an honorable mention in the Bourges Electroacoustic Music Competition of 2003.
