Comp
osed in 2012,
Musikphantome for string
quartet was awarded first
prize in the 2015 Malta
International Composition
Competition (Valletta,
Malta). From the
composer: Musikphantome
is a term used by
Christoph Ruths and can
be translated as phantoms
of music or musical
ghosts. The germinal idea
of the piece was to
transfigure from psychic
imagery to a musical
language a recollection
of memories which
involuntarily kept
appearing in my mind.
These ghosts manifested
themselves in groups
conformed by individual
abstract figures, each
group with distinct
characteristics, forms,
colors, textures, and
essences. Somehow, I
managed to explore and
ultimately externalize
these ghosts by making
way for them through a
very intuitive
compositional
process..
