Album Info
"In principle there is nothing wrong with you writing for four recorders", admitted Morton Feldman although he reserves little hope for the success of recorder music. His view on electronic instruments is similarly critical. With this in mind Lucia Mense's program electronic counterpoint had a hard time of it, for the recorder player from Cologne dares the seemingly asynchronous feet on her new solo CD of uniting a wealth of diverse recorders with live electronics. The musician, who is active in classical as well as contemporary music chose for her program composers who would write specifically for this combination. The recordings from the live recital now appear in May on satelita Musikverlag, the Cologne based label for experimental music. The results of this experiment are marked by hybrid forms; a fresh sound, humor and intensity. Sounds on the borderline between tone and noise, micro-tonal harmonics and algorithmic compositions meet real-time interactive computer-controlled processes. Marc Sabat for example in his cycle "Erbsen" (trans. Peas). The composer manages to multiply the soloist so that one has the illusion of listening to a whole ensemble. This is a meeting of Baroque music with modern loop-based composition. Manfred Stahnkes "Impansion Expansion" on the other hand explores the sound of the instrument in an even more emphatic way. The voices follow on from one another, melt into surfaces, beats are broken with melodic parts. With [Re:re Record a:re] Sascha Lino Lemke enters into a complicated recording and resampling process involving memory. Overtone flute parts cross virtuous melody fragments, estranged sounds and wisp like phrases in an electronically powered continuum of flutes, recordings and playback. Ulrich Krieger's "Black Smoker" surfaces as a soundscape with ghostly soundtrack qualities conjuring images of an ancient under water world, and with "Tsunami" Georg Hajdu manages to synthesize mathematical processes with artistic expression. Mense's virtuosity is pushed to the limit through the use of computer editing, but without her playing ever becoming chaotic, mechanical or random. This collection of recorder and electronic sounds might go some way to revoking some of those since kindergarten ingrained stereotypes towards a by all accounts underrated instrument.gogoyoko recommends:
