annam - 1993 - 20'06

annam means 'food' in sanskrit.

this word, which i found while i was working on the piece, provides quite a good description of my relationship to sonic and musical phenomena, for it brings into play the two most important levels in our work as modern composers: to express our relation to the material (and, more symbolically, to nature) and to transcend the latter and make its spiritual essence perceptible.

'concrete music' seems to me to be the only field of musical expression that is at present capable of realistically carrying out that task (as opposed to merely expressing it as an intention), notably by means of special methods of treating sound objects that have been either picked up or created. basically, this work consists of sounds picked up by the microphone and produced by very simple objects: stones of different sizes and densities, pieces of wood of various dimensions. that is as far as the material goes.

the morphologies i obtained were then modified by multiple manipulations in the studio, in order to make this raw material eflect my subjectivity.

the course the realisation takes is also that of the final form itself, progressively moving from a simple line of sound to a complex musical structure, from an almost shapeless image of the material matter to a symbolised, dramatised representation of it.
