Flügel
/ Vleugel___________________________________________________ongoing
For 2 years I have been
searching for ways to play the piano without my untrained hands
betraying
me. The current
method employs established experimental
strategies, preparations and feedback, to alter the instrument's
timbral language. Pickups induce
harmonic resonance - vibrating the strings and excirting the objects
placed thereon. The music is a balance of
choice
and chance,
where minute
changes to the gain and frequency
in the pickups produce an unpredictable sequence of sound events.
Below is the complete unmastered desk recording of the most recent
performance into which I incorporated two tympanis. You can read
a review of this performance here.
