By definition, Offing is the part of the deep sea seen from the shore. From this image, I composed this musical piece whose aim is to recreate that perceptual effect when looking at that distant shore of the sea. There is a sort of ripple where details are lost due to the distance. There is also a lulling and relaxing effect. The result is a sonority where the different instruments blend and get lost in the mass of sound.

The structure of the piece is organised according to an Isorhythm counterpoint process, where all the instruments play the same melody, either by augmenting or diminishing the rhythm.

This piece was composed in 2018 for the Laps Ensemble and performed at the EuroArts 2018 festival in Brussels. The instrumentation is violin, cello, trombone, bass clarinet, piano, saxophone, and two laptops running a max/msp patch.
