Convergence

Flûte alto et électronique

For Cairn Ensemble. 
Premiered by Cedric Jullion, Cairn Ensemble June 2011 at CRD Blanc Mesnil. Recording by Roy Amotz, December 2013.
Paris 2010, 7′ Ca

In this work, I explored the idea of a granulation (segmented sound), that becomes denser until a complete convergence ? a long note. This idea also derives from the metaphor of the natural bouncing of a rubber material. The idea can be found in the macro ? the general form of the piece, and in the micro ? the construction of an individual sound. The work was written in collaboration with Paolo Vignaroli who contributed to the electroacoustic part and premiered by Cedric Jullion from Cairn Ensemble in Blanc-Mesnil.
