The
viola solo courbe 2 is
based on an excerpt from
the viola part in the
Trio for flute, viola and
harp << courbes >> -
sequences. In the densest
time curve of this piece
the viola plays the
leading role for a span
of almost three minutes.
This material is taken
from the Trio, presented
and divided into separate
parts. courbe 2 is three
times longer in duration
than the Trio excerpt
from which it is derived.
The musical text of the
individual fragments
remains as it is in the
original, but, pulsating,
demarcated in seconds.
Fissures emerge between
the fragments, windows
open: - to harmonic
fields, central sounds,
taken over from the
reverberations, from
which new tone material
is derived; the fields in
turn are distorted and
spacialised by the
electronics - to metrical
structures and pulses
freed from the individual
motives of the original
musical text, which forms
new variants in
interaction with these
fields. Thus in courbe 2
which, as already
indicated, is three times
longer in duration than
the original, three
musical levels are
interpenetrated, whereby
all three are derived
from one tone, which
plays an absolutely
central role in most of
my works. It is a
reference to the French
writer Anne-Marie Albiach
(and to her great text <<
H II >> lineaires), and
it remains as the only
tone at the end of the
piece, definitively,
determining everything, b
= 247 Hertz. Walter
Feldmann.
