Wedge : (1994), for two audio tracks / René Uijlenhoet
Description:
Program note (English): In Wedge I focus on the role of rhythm in electro-acoustic music. We will hear the rhythm in macro-scale, in montage sequences (as in a film), but also in micro-scale, or metric rhythm. When we combine them, a contrast appears between the freely developing sound and the stiff base. The sound material of the work derives from the recordings of multiple sounds and the effects achieved in the bass clarinet by the musician Hein Pijnenburg. These rich, often almost percussive sounds are mixed with the synthetic tones obtained through analysis of the sounds of the bass clarinet and the percussion. In 1994 the work won the First Prize in the 'studio' category at the 'Quadrivium' competition in Bourges (France). - RENÉ UIJLENHOET
