"Ihr Fassen nach Wind"
electroacoustic music
tape: 2 channel, CDR/DAT
For the piece "Ihr Fassen nach Wind" I used a text of the German author
Michael Wuestefeld (Dresden), which also represents a formal arrangement and
subdivision. The speech and the text are broken into little, sometimes
complete word parts. Furthermore I recorded the acoustic environment of the
Johannes Church in Duesseldorf (Germany) from the north, the east, the south
and the west sides and manipulated this material or used it also in its
original form in short cuts. The sound of the bells and some interior sounds
of the church are also important components and motives throughout the
entire piece. The idea was to combine the composition of electroacoustic
text elements with the manipulated surrounding acoustic of a central,
well-known and public building in my town.
