Created for Azimuth 6, here as a stereo version of the original 32-channel version.

'Based on the introduction of Jean-Paul Resweber's book "The Philosophy of Language", the piece explores the ambiguity between the voice that conveys a message and the voice whose acoustic and musical qualities are heard. It seems that when our attention is focused on the musical aspect of the voice, we forget the message it carries, and vice versa. The back and forth between these different levels of listening leaves the listener free to give it its own meaning, if there is one. And this is precisely the question asked by the original text. '

A Song From The Files Of Dr. Eve L

Lyrics:
The sky is clear below me
But clouds taste metallic
Rain is tearing down me
Now breath's drowned in static

Lightning flies to greet me 
But clouds taste metallic
Lightning numb's and heats me
Now breath's drowned in static

Mouth bound with metallic grace
Tongue lined with metallic hate
Blood and sand mask your face
Quicksilver's the human fate

Lightning tastes the clouds
Lightning tastes the clouds

The sky is clear below me
But clouds taste metallic
Rain is tearing down me
Now breath's drowned in static

Lightning flies to greet me 
But clouds taste metallic
Lightning numb's and heats me
Now breath's drowned in static

Something Out There Is Wrong

Something Went Wrong!

Clouds Taste Metallic

Fuse modulations - excerpt

sad and scared

This is the world premiere of the new work for double-bell horn, developed during the Virtual Brass Academy with Christine Chapman and Ensemble MusikFabrik, July 2020. This performance took place on July 30th, 2020 - in Cologne.
I am indebted to Ensemble MusikFabrik and the fantastic work they did with us in introducing us to the worlds of double-bell instruments, and to the ever-expanding repertoire of new music for these instruments they are bringing to the world.

The work explores a sense of dual forces that act and react upon each other, and how the relative mediator (the performer) indeed interacts with the score, the instrument and it's two bells, and finally how the theatre of the piece - both through actions and the position of the instrument - is transmitted to the audience. In the four sections of the piece that each explore a different facet of the manipulation of the horn - first through the use of a contra-bassoon reed to produce aggressive yet fulfilling multiphonics; then in the second and third exploring the two bells and their range of possibilities. The final section condenses the instrument down to only it's single-bell form and the mute and interacts briefly with it to express a settling within the performance. Gasping, grunting, growling and grandeur are all some of the ideas explored in this short miniature.
