Programme Note SIRENENGESANG was composed in the spring 1994 and was commis-sioned by the AVANTI! Chamber Orchestra. The work was written with support from NOMUS. The music is not a romantic reflection on presumed siren songs. The title expresses an impalpable conception which manifests itself in dense quartertone-distorted melodies and manic, almost frozen tone-repetitions. Sometimes the music becomes static screams, sometimes there is room for small naive fragments of melody. By the end of the piece a fragment from the 'Angel-Duet' of my THE ECHOING GARDEN emerges. SIRENENGESANG is dedicated to Per Norgard. Bent Sorensen.

The DT 770 PRO is a closed, dynamic headphone for professional use as a monitoring headphone in studios. Its design has been tailored for use in a studio. The single-sided cable makes it easier to handle the headphones when they have to be constantly put on and taken off. The robust spring steel construction gives the headphones a secure fit and the mechanical reliability needed for daily use. Soft, adjustable ear cups and a single-sided cable contribute to a high level of long-term comfort. The connecting cable is fitted with a gold-plated mini stereo jack plug (3.5 mm) with a 1/4″ adapter (6.35mm) and can therefore be connected to all common headphone outputs. With its impulse behavior, the DT 770 PRO comes close to electrostatic headphones and delivers a natural and balanced sound. Even the deepest bass is reproduced with clarity and punch. High frequencies are converted into an analytical, clear and differentiated sound that does not produce screaming or shrieking even with powerful treble sounds.

Mixed choir

SKU: FG.55011-857-7

Composed by Žibuoklė Martinaitytė. Classical, contemporary. Book. Fennica Gehrman #55011-857-7. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.55011-857-7).

Žibuoklė Martinaitytė tells about the background of Aletheia (2022) for mixed choir (SSSSAAAATTTTBBBB): Aletheia is variously translated from Greek as unconcealedness, revealing or unclosedness. It is uncovering of the Truth - the one we are afraid to face, the truth that can only be expressed directly through the pre-verbal communication. How do you find words for the horrors of the war, for all unimaginable global atrocities? How do you even allow yourself to feel it out? Solely through art, through music that offer a safe space and a formalized framework for processing these accumulated complex emotions and sharing them with others in a moment. This piece has no verbal text and it is based on various combinations of vowels and consonants, thus connecting us on a deeper level through the immediate emotional experience.

The war in Ukraine in spring of 2022 had an impact on all of us and shattered my deeply rooted Lithuanian identity. When the freedom is threatened and innocent people are dying, it is hard to make sense out of the reality. Yet there is poetry even in the worst nightmares. I was imagining that the only instrument people have even in situations of destruction, in the midst of the war, is their VOICE. It brought back memories of my youth when Singing revolution was taking place in the Baltic countries. Human voice was the only weapon that people used to express their determination for freedom and independence. Voice is our first and the very last instrument we have in our lifetime. Thinking in these terms brings almost a sacred dimension to the voice as an expression of the life itself - from the very first baby's scream until the last breath and whisper.

Duration c. 15'

The works of New York -based Lithuanian composer Žibuoklė Martinaitytė (b. 1973) have been lauded as breathtaking and profoundly moving. Her stimulating music bristles with energy and tension and revolves often around the subject of beauty, which she calls both a guiding principle and an aesthetic measure for sonic quality.
