Soundless Musical ideas hear occasionally Alan Perrin 2018

Instrument F Tuba with a microtonal valve system Duration: ca. 10′00′′ Programme note For this work, I wanted to write a piece in the material would be like the mobile sculptures of Calder Alexander. I worked out the shorter ‘denser’ objects are the multi-technique phrases through experimentation and a patch which I programmed in OpenMusic. These dense phrases are joined together via longer modal phrases. To express the third dimension of motion, which is present in the Alexander mobiles I used the dynamic range of the tuba to give an important role to have the impression of sound far away and close by.
