All That Is Between — V (2024)

Using MuBu, I chopped up I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For into a dense collage of tiny fragments which I improvised with in Max/Spat/MuBu and then pieced together in Reaper.

I made this for the Chaire Supersonique project i did in collaboration with IRCAM and the Beaux-Arts de Paris.

Big nod to Negativland here!

Performed by Orchestra 2001 with Jayce Ogren (conductor) and Rinde Eckert (narrator)

I. The subtleness of the sea
II. Whale-Lines
III. Old age
IV. The color white

Herman Melville's novel "Moby-Dick; or, The Whale" (1851) was famously described by D.H. Lawrence as "the greatest book of the sea ever written". It tells the story of an obsessive sea captain who decides to take revenge on Moby Dick - the whale that bit off his leg. In this composition for narrator and ensemble I offer musical responses to Melville's alluring prose.
