Stimulated
by my love of automata,
this work for solo oboe
takes its name from the
invention of Wolfgang von
Kempelen, who in the late
eighteenth century
constructed an
extraordinary mechanical
man powered by clockwork,
dressed in a stylish
Turkish costume and
capable of playing chess.
The chess player turned
out to be a fraud but
sparked many other
thinkers and inventors to
pondering what the
possibilities of
automation might be. In
Hesketh's highly
virtuosic work, the
through-composed melody
is subjected to a series
of distortions by
pulleys, cams, gears and
cranks. There are also
the onomatopoeic effects
of winding up and
whirring noises that add
to the air of the
mechanical.
