Bonjour à tous,
Voici ma deuxième Invention pour piano. 🎹
J’ai souhaité écrire en contrepoint dans un style baroque moderne.
J’interprète au piano « Invention 2 »
Composition écrite en juillet, enregistrée le 27 juillet 2023

Invention 2 – Piano Baroque moderne Original

method: having written the poem and created a background track, I asked the incomparable REKHA to join me in the gestation of this soundscape and she added her miracle voice and beautiful guitar as well as mixing and  producing prowess. thank you, my dear genius!
here is her release of tandava https://soundcloud.com/rekha-iyern-fe/tandava which also links (in the description) to a solo version of her beautiful guitar work on this track, titled Feel It!.
listen to more of her varied and mesmerizing oeuvres here:  https://soundcloud.com/rekha-iyern-fe and here: https://rekhaiyernfe.bandcamp.com/
narration: this poem combines Indian and European folklore. India is home to dancing Shiva Nataraja, Europe (for precision's sake, Germany) is the place from which folk tales about jesters and 'divine fools' originate. the contrast creates its own kind of magic, especially with my wonderful collaborator! All her mesmerizing additions are copyrighted to her.
image: a place of solace, jo richter

poem / copyright jo richter:

shoes overhead, dangling
from the tightrope line
dance like Shiva
to the song divine

the upward path bristles
with premonitions of joy
Vasuki tightrope
create, play, destroy, …...

good citizens of Schilda
carry sunlight in sacks
change is ecstatic
on four purring legs

oh, the gargantuan cat
will devour us all
circular vistas
from mount Meru so tall

to till fertile soil
at the rainbow‘s end
Mohini‘s beauty
in the pineal gland

a pied piper piping
glittering caves
Nataraja‘s dancing
on sentinent waves

大きな鳥 Ⅲ (a large bird Ⅲ)

“この樹は今鳥かくせりとおもひつつ眞下より見る枝葉のうらを”
木下利玄（1886-1925）

The tree must be hiding a large bird behind its thriving branches and leaves. I thought so and looked up the tree, trying to find the bird.

POETRY IS VITAL

This threshold space exists for those who feel like listening to some of my quite professional poetry embedded in rather amateurishly recorded but judiciously arranged sound, a modicum of purely acoustic work notwithstanding.  Fortunately, some other artists have also transformed the symbolic expression of my words into the tangible beauty of real songs and soundscapes - just listen to Sympoetic Ultrasounds: https://soundcloud.com/sonic-textures/sets/sympoetic-ultrasounds !

SOUND, SPACE AND TIME

Tend your listening senses gently. Even though my general approach welcomes and embraces lo-fi concepts like the precision of spontaneously occuring imprecisions, headphones worth their membranes are recommended - unless you like your sounds flat, mangled, battered and helpless. You don't, do you? Be kind to these soundscapes.

STRUCTURING IMPULSE

Due to the nature of "poetry soundscapes", your listening expectations regarding traditionally structured "songs", sonically purified "raw wildlife soundscapes", keyboard-laden "ambient recordings" or voice-centered "readings" might not be met. You will find some of those in my list of /likes/. "Noise" is a recurring structural element like any other. This is what this sounds like - within its own rights, limitations, tangents and interconnections. Sonic structures. Silent stretches. Poetry emerges from the gaps between the ruts, seeps in from the undergrowth, sweeps down.

CARVING, CHISELLING, KNEADING, MORPHING

A quick glance into my toolshed rests on Zoom recorders, Samplitude software and a dizzying array of diverse sonic machinery.

LARGE AND SMALL GIFTS

-----------------------------
Small Gifts

the less to remember, the more to listen
gifts from the ice age reverberate
a simple story, a forest, a coastline
entangled in silence, one starts to relate
---------------------------------------------

In case you have read up to this point, you might be a sonic creator yourself. May I ask you for a helping ear? Above, there is a tiny poem of mine that I do not understand how to translate into sound. If you do - please act on it. It is a matter of common decency, of course, to keep the title (Small Gifts) and to credit the lyrics to me (jo richter). And please do notify me of your version via a soundcloud message. One bewilderingly beautiful version crafted by mono-lux has already gone public, as well as an amazing version by cthonicist.  You'll find both in my playlist Sympoetic Ultrasounds. This is just a small gift, not a challenge - life already has more than enough of those on offer, doesn't it? Treat it this way.

POETRY IS VITAL
sound, space and time
structuring impulse
carving, chiselling, kneading, morphing
large and small gifts
poetry is vital

GENERAL POLICY regarding the use of LIKES, REPOSTS and FOLLOWS:
I like what I like and want to hear again.
I only repost what I've had a hand in creating.
I follow when I see directions or arrivals I like, not when followed (though I might peek in to get an idea of what your sounds are about). I have set myself a limit of accounts I follow not to be all too overwhelmed. Not following does therefore not mean I do not appreciate what you contribute to the enjoyments of soundcloud.
Do not expect other behaviour from me.
(jo richter)
