Work & Edition Details
Things happening for a double bass performer moves between soundscapes, cool jazz elements and expressivity. Nora Gomringer's poem Wilson Opera Monologue provided the template for the mixed form of language and sound. The expressivity and the strongly formulated rhythm of the monologue create a dynamic that is interrupted, questioned, taken over, contrasted and commented on by the double bass. Words and music are led to an ever-increasing cyclone of expression, consisting of rhythm, loops, noises and tonally flowing processes. The double bass player is not only in demand as a musician, but also as a sharp and impulsive text interpreter. Linguistic style, sound and performance merge into a poetic interdisciplinary form, in which coolness and impulsive impetus create inner tension. The text and sound material returns again and again in variations according to the principle of micro-repetition and unfolds a flowing form between chamber music and performance consisting of three elements: a double bass player, a monologue and music. Minas Borboudakis, February 2023.
