Fantastic gallery of timbristic mirrors; images being continuously melted, distorted; moments existing out of time, not as a sequence but as a pulverized conglomerate of transparencies. It is as if you are navigating in an alien forest... Such trajectory, or piece, or narrative, has an uncanny genetic link with a remote auditive past: a kind of pre-historic embodiment of micro-organisms' syntax. It's definitely not "modern". But ancient as all Art should strive to be - contrary to the sonic obsolescence and why not, musical superfluousness of much of the present time aesthetic conservatism...

Binaural recording - listen with headphones!
Part of the work-in-progress H.E.A.D.

Generative soundscape based on a two-dimensional random walk between four binaural soundscapes, recorded in spring 2021 at various creeks in Lower Austria and processed with MaxMSP:

1) Krumpenwasser ("Gießgang") inside the Stockerauer Au
2) an artificial creek ("Fischwanderhilfe") at the Danube power plant Greifenstein
3) the river Schwechat which flows through Helenental close to the monastery of Heiligenkreuz
4) the Mauerbach near the Carthusian monastery of the same name

ABOUT THE ALBUM
For multi-instrumentalist Leo Genovese, all of life represents a ceremony. In this project, he poses a particular assembly of rituals to honor that celebratory feeling: offerings, dances, chants and acts, inspired by cultures and tribes from around the world. Leo Genovese is joined by his longtime collaborator Demian Cabaud (Bass) and legendary drummer Jeff Williams, to form a trio—and on four tracks, by Catamarca's singer Nadia Larcher. Larcher’s voice is particularly affecting, soaring over the rhythmic beats and experimental jazz from the trio, to build rich, layered sounds. Ritual presents an album of celebration, convening in a post-pandemic world to again play music together. This marks Leo Genovese’s second album on 577 Records following Ritmos De Agua (2021). It will be available digitally and as a CD on March 4, 2022.

A small fragment of a rehearsal of Kampela's Motets during ou residency at Schloss Solitude, Stuttgart

Arthur Kampela - Motets (fragment of rehearsal)by Oh Mensch

Poema sobre a sobrevivência do morto como algo que se deteriora enquanto coisa concreta; que de certa maneira, 'sobrevive' ainda entre nós, pessoas da rotina, e da hora; o Morto obedece à secreta ordem das coisas putrefeitas. E seu trabalho é o lento trabalho da dissolução, da erosão, e mesmo de adubo, que afeta a realidade e por ela é afetado. Escutem. Foi uma maneira que encontrei de prolongar e ainda tornar pertinaz a ausência de meu amado irmão Salo nesta Realidade que atravessamos - e nos trespassa.

Polifonía Concreta(2005) (2009) (2013)
One day in the year 2005?  the Argentinean flutist Mariana Stratta came to NYC to work on my flute pieces for her doctoral dissertation. The second day she bought a bass flute  and brought it to our meeting. That night she left and asked me to leave the flute in my apt. I told her that because I have never touch a bass flute probably I will feel like playing it. Next morning it was raining and I felt like playing the bass flute. Because of the sound of the rain I decided to put the recorder in the bathroom  and later in the day I went to the bathroom and made this recording plus another section of a different nature. Few years after when I was living in Berlin I listened to this recording and decided to transcribe it and sent the score to Mariana.
Polifonía concreta was premiered by Mariana Stratta at the 39th Annual National Flute Association Convention in 2011. Her effort in learning the piece by reading the score and listening to the original recording presented here inspired me to write a new -more detailed-version in 2013.  That new score of Polifonía concreta is dedicated to Mariana Stratta.

Fuyante (1996)

Cuatro conciencias... o dos conciencias desdobladas en la que cada parte se manifiesta independientemente de las otras, en su propia temporalidad, en su propio tempo, en su propia tinta…Y sin embargo compartiendo trayectorias, explosiones, gestos, letargos, temblores y devaneos de una materia sonora casi indefinida que las unifica en un mismo universo.  
Este cuarteto disjunto y autónomo en sus partes se completa quizás –y solamente- en el oído de quien escucha, sin que esto signifique necesariamente un cierre. Trama plurivalente hecha de interrupciones y resonancias a largo plazo. Vapores y golpes que alertan a la memoria desorientada. Los materiales se dispersan, se acercan o superponen siguiendo una lógica huidiza que no alcanza a revelar su mecanismo.

César Vallejo vino nuevamente a iluminar lo indecible.

Grabación del ensayo previo al estreno realizado por el Cuarteto UNTREF.

Cuatro conciencias

New York-based Argentinean composer Marcelo Toledo has developed though the years a personal music style particularly oriented toward the exploration of instrumental timbre, an aspect of his work that has become a characteristic facet of his compositions. In his work he has eliminated the traditional importance given to pitch in order to focus on a new aural matter. This is the product of a research created through his essential engagement to explore -with his personal techniques- the instruments of the orchestra. Toledo’s music evolves almost biologically in an intricate sound texture made out of complex fluid sounds.
