Elsewhere

Cyclical patterns of sound move in and out of focus, as if approaching from a distance before receding into haze. The tone of the violin is periodically transformed from white noise via drifting pitch into glistening harmonics and back again, forming arcs. Lightly amplified reverb is used to extend the sounding space that the music inhabits. Our perspective on the music is altered. What we hear is simultaneously both in the room and seemingly elsewhere. Ephemeral sounds are briefly held suspended in the air, heightening our perception of details within them before they disperse. © Edmund Finnis Schwierigkeitsgrad: 4-5
