30 duets for thirty minutes of music! One of my first compositions for students, professionals or amateurs. Music is sometimes synonymous with humor: consume without moderation (just kidding ...).

“Four Studies was written for Angela and Jennifer Chun in 2014. Each movement has a drone which lasts for the duration of the movement. The first bar of movements 1 and 4 can be quite long. The drone should remain loosely indifferent to the other part, avoiding any overly-dramatic commentary. That having been said, the droning player should feel free to subtly and constantly change the nature of the sound. Rests are meant to be played freely, expanding and contracting as the spirit moves the soloists, but the notes should be played in relatively even time. The space between the movements can work either with very short pauses or with no pauses at all; this is left up to the discretion of the performers.” – Nico MuhlyApproximately 12 minutes.

The study in synchronicity, se sont penches dessus first achieved its final scoring after many changes. It was first composed as music to a choreography by Gabriel Hernandez: Le (!). eh ? Zovotrimaserovmeravmerouvian (dmzn !) ; se sont penches dessus, which is based on the letters of a fragment translated into French that appears in James Joyce's Finnegan's Wake. The short, static piece has existed in three versions: 1. - sspd , electronic music (normal version, a glissando from one chord of four sounds to another, employed in the electronics of No. 3) 2. - sspd sature, electronic music (intentionally distorted version of No. 1) 3. - se sont penches dessus for violin, alto flute and electronics, in which the flutist had to sing one tone of a diad It turns out that a version for two equal string instruments can better render the harmony of the piece (a tone sung simultaneously with a tone that is played on the flute yields a ring-modulated mixture of sound which is too indistinct), and thus the duo version for 2 violins was composed. A collaboration with the Kairos Quartet, Berlin, (le second tour du noye, 3rd String Quartet) led me to smuggle a viola and cello into the piece as background, in order to glue the abrupt harmonic changes discretely together. The Duo and the Quartet are definitive and equally valid versions, both of which are available separately: Duo (Carus 16.327/10), Quartet (Carus 16.327). se sont penches dessus is now literally the transposition of the translated quotation from James Joyce, in which the letters of the text se sont penches dessus establish the basic structure of the piece (the rhythmic standstill denotes the vowels of the 4 words), the letters of Zovotrimaserovmeravmerouvian indicate the fine rhythmic structure and the manner of playing (e.g., sul ponticello). Walter Feldmann. Score available separately - see item CA.1632700.
