Fantasia Rapsodica - Live

Winter flowers, like a distant thought

Performed by Yuting Hwang

Composed at the beginning of December 2014 on kind demand of my dear friend Yu-Ting Huang for her concert in Suzhou, China.

This piece is a free interpretation of the impressions of a winter landscape.

The chords are not organised according to an harmonic system, they intend to suggest a timbral and acoustic research of the sound. The piano is here considered as a percussion instrument.

The interpretation leaves to the performer the task to decide the tempo according to instrument, to the place and to his/her good taste. The tempo should nevertheless be very slow in order to allow the audience to perceive each chord as a defined entity included in a bigger context (chord -> flower).

Special care should be given to the control of the touch: every chord or group of chords should have a peculiar “colour” , and every single sound in each chord should be individually considered. No key should be depressed without care. If not explicitly indicated, this choice is left to the performer. (Every chord is composed as a group of simultaneous sounds, not as a whole block.)

The indication “Andante molto adagio e largo” suggests that attention should be paid also to the horizontal development of the piece, meaning that the sound flow and the movement from one chord to the next one should not be interrupted until the very end. Every rush and/or not needed movement should be avoided. The fermatas are short, unless differently indicated.

This piece is partially algorithmically composed using patches created with OpenMusic.

Fiori d'inverno

Fiori d'inverno, come un pensiero lontano

Studio Sincretico VIII is part of a cycle of works inspired by the concept of Syncretism (combining and/or blending different elements and beliefs) and at the same time by the perception syncrétique (global perception of the external reality as a whole in the psychology of the children). 

The music is composed by heterogeneous materials conceived and created in separated artistic processes, now re-interpreted in a new form based on an intuitive balance between contrasts and affinities in rhythms and textures.

Original: 8ch (4ch also available)

Marco Bidin's “Studi Sincretici” are a cycle of works for electronics with or without acoustic instruments.

The title is inspired by the concept of Syncretism (combining and / or mixing different elements and beliefs) and at the same time the "syncretic perception" of external reality in the psychology of children.

The electronics are realized by parts originally composed for other tracks, but not yet used, or only partially used. These clips were then decontextualized, reinterpreted and placed in the context of a new musical creation.
