A few - Events for Phill Niblock, January - March 2014
Jan 15 , Klub Katarakt Festival 37
A premier of a newpiece for three orchestras, commisioned by the Katarakt Festival
"Three Petals" for the ensembles - Nelly Boyd, Hamburg;Trio Scordatura +, Amsterdam; Neon Ensemble, Oslo
Three Petals is originally conceived to be performed by three ensemblesplus pre-recorded playback. The first performance (by the commissioners - Klub Katarakt Festival in Hamburg) will takeplace in separate but contiguous halls. The audience can only hear the completework by walking through the spaces. The piece could also be performed by threeseparated ensembles in one common space (e.g., a concert hall).
The first and third ensemble move up a semitonethrough the piece (one from F to F#, the other from C to C#), while the secondensemble remains « stationary » around A. This, theoretically, results in amove, over 24 minutes, from major to minor, albeit blurred by the microtonalcharacter of the totality.
