Projects/Ideas
anima mundi 2015
These pieces were constructed from a number of disparate musical ideas and solo improvisations I recorded and which had accreted over many years in my musical 'library'. I wanted to make something from these fragments, and started on an intuitive sonic response to a number of recordings I felt had some potential. I began inserting the sound files into Audacity. It was uncanny how compatible many of the recorded fragments were and before too long these developing sound collages began to coalesce and take form. Extra instrumentation was added in places courtesy of Notion software. The work was further developed and transformed with Audacity.
Live recorded instruments - alto clarinet, alto sax, clavinova, piano & stainless steel mixing bowls.
