Opus 2 "Sonorous" by Robért Roblou Copyrighted © 2008 - 2014  

Sonorous (Robért Roblou Op.2)

With a penchant for taking an absurdly positive predisposition when faced with soul crushing negative opinion, this piece was ignited by failure when attending an interview for a Masters degree at the University of Nottingham. Deemed that the compositions presented to the residing Professor were “a little basic”, this composition was fuelled by a sense of determination and a simplistic muse of a squirrel scampering through the university grounds. This muse lead to mimicking the rhythmic pattern and what was to be interpreted as the sonic melody. The majority of the score has been extended into both registers. Starting from bar 1-6 is the main theme with content mirroring and rhythmic embellishment through subjective deletion from bar 8-15. Bar 16 sees a return to the most enjoyable* thematic event within the piece before highlighting the original compressed full theme at bar 19. The piece finalises with a return to the enjoyable* thematic construct. 

(*enjoyment is purely subjective via the individual listener.)

Opus 4 Failure by Robért Roblou. Copyrighted 2008 - 2014 

Failure (Robért Roblou Op. 4)

Correlation: An Exercise in Audience Tolerance part 1 & 2  (Opus 1) – 2013 – 2014

Duration: Approx. 3:48
The genus of this melding; two parts to form a subjectively more concurrent piece, dated back to an earlier Musical Direction module of which the two original parts were specifically composed. The two pieces were inspired by a fledging infatuation with minimalist contemporary composers, specifically influence from Morton Feldman’s piece Rothko Chapel & Piano Four Hands and Fur Alina by Arvo Part.
The two original works entitled An Exercise in Audience Tolerance Part 1and 2 used the premise of Feldman’s sparse nature and provided a platform to extend the boundaries of resonance within a piece while diminishing the tempo accordingly to extend the full sound of the harmonic structure including an individual’s perception of consonance and dissonance. 
This unified arrangement played on pianoforte via four hands, provides an opportunity to cherry pick the best of each piece and make further adaptations to the duet. However listening back to the final arrangement, I feel that this could have been better presented due to the two pieces seem disjointed when mixed.

Correlation (Robért Roblou Op. 1)

The reminiscent feeling of a night of extended pain and terror provided by my own vices, is the basis for this works rapid flurry of frenzied fury. This short work for violin and pianoforte has a variety of contemporary classical influences yet the piece is entirely theoretical and would be unplayable in the conventional manor. This is due to the combination of consonant tones and opposing dissonant quarter tones. The influences of Stockhausen’s Klavierstuck IX are represented for the violin with a horizontal line dictating the volume changes throughout. The Pianoforte adds small flurries to the high pitched drone which, building to a crescendo cacophony of tonal clusters, fully represents the unbridled agony felt that evening. Unfortunately there is no audio file to accompany the score. This is due to an unfortunately technological discrepancy with Sibelius 6. 

Now updated with the correct audio accompaniment.
