OCCAM OC\u00c9AN<\/p>\n

This piece was inspired by a large mural diagram like an emakimono, discovered by chance in 1973 at the Museum of Natural History in Los Angeles. It showed the „spectrum of electromagnetic waves“ moving from the largest measurable to the smallest of known wavelengths, one vertiginously beyond 1011 the distance of the earth to the sun, and one below 108 THz of a Gamma ray. Out of this large spectrum, there exists a miniscule zone from slightly less than 100 Hz to slightly more than 10 KHz that the ears of certain species populating the planet earth, have transformed into „sounds“. Beyond this, are wavelengths perceived as „light“ and others, adapted into numerous highly useful applications integrated into our daily life. It was copied on site onto several pieces of paper, perhaps with mistakes, and later graciously transcribed by Marie-Agnes Blond and Stephane Roux’s skilled hands for an article that appeared in the Leonardo Music Journal, giving me the opportunity to bring it up-to-date and mould it into the „spirit“ of this new work.<\/p>\n

Next, came an interesting resonance with several of my current reflections, somewhat dissociated from their theological basis, on William of Ockham and his famous analysis called „Ockham’s Razor“. Expressed most succinctly in his own words: „The simplest, the best“, it has been adapted and used by numerous artist-creators.<\/p>\n

Finally, was the distant recollection of a science fiction story I read ages ago concerning the existence of a mythical ocean. Only the title remains etched in my memory, „Occam’s Razor“, thus explaining the origin of the spelling adopted in the end. It seems in fact that the Ocean with its multiple waves can allow us to get, symbolically, closer to a rather large spectrum of vibrating undulations, reaching from the great deep swells to the wavelets of beautiful summer days. This explains the „structure“ of the overall project.<\/p>\n

As many solos as there are volunteers to participate in this exchange, will make up the „sources“. Only OCCAM I for harpist Rhodri Davies has been completed, and brilliantly premiered in London on June 14, 2011.
\nOCCAM II is being prepared with the violinist Sylvia Tarozzi.
\nOCCAM III will soon be brought to life by the breath of Carol Robinson and her birbyne.
\nOCCAM IV involves the violist Julia Eckhart. Others are yet to come.<\/p>\n

Later the duets, trios, etc will arrive…all the way to the ocean…<\/p>\n

Our personal work mode is also based on an individual „image“ illustrated and evoked within each solo. This provides the essential, projecting an „image“ that allows us through words and what they evoke, to establish a system of communication as the work is being elaborated and to direct its meaning through an intuitive-instinctive mode touched with reason, to the very nature of music, there where no system of musical notation can be applied.

Silvia Tarozzi<\/strong> is a violinist, singer, composer and improviser. Her research on sound and instrumental gesture, nourished by her experience as an improviser, is expressed in her numerous collaborations with composers from the international contemporary scene. She released albums for the labels New World Records, I dischi di Angelica, Potlatch, Unseen Worlds. He concerts and music have been recorded and broadcast by BBC Radio, France Musique, Radio Rai. She regularly performs both as a soloist and in chamber ensembles and ensembles in international festivals and concert halls. Since 2011, she has also regularly collaborated with composer E\u0301liane Radigue, becoming one of the principal interpreters of her compositional cycle Occam Oce\u0301an for acoustic instruments and creating dozens of works ranging from the solo Occam II to chamber music. She is to date the only Radigue\u2019s performer to have re-created with a new soloist a new Occam solo from her own Occam II for violin. Thus was born in 2019 Occam IIb for maestro Irvine Arditti. For 20 years Silvia Tarozzi has formed a duo with Italian cellist Deborah Walker. Mi specchio e rifletto, a recording project of original compositions for voice and instruments inspired by the poetess Alda Merini, was released in summer 2020 for the US label Unseen Worlds and in 2022 for the same label Canti di guerra, di lavoro e d’amore, in duo with Walker, a project inspired by the female folk songs of the Emilia-Romagna region. In 2022 he also composed and performed with Canadian composer Cassandra Miller Bismillah meets the Creator in Springtime for the BBC orchestra and two soloists.

Thomas Lehn<\/strong> z\u00e4hlt seit Jahren zu den innovativsten und erfolgreichsten musikalischen Pers\u00f6nlichkeiten auf dem Gebiet der elektroakustischen Musik im Spannungsfeld zwischen Improvisation und Komposition. Nach der akademischen Ausbildung an den Musikhochschulen in Detmold und K\u00f6ln zum Tonmeister und Pianisten verlagerte sich seine fr\u00fche Klavierpraxis in Kammer- und Jazzmusik zunehmend auf die Interpretation und Improvisation zeitgen\u00f6ssischer Musik. Mit seinen Performances und Produktionen (live-)elektronischer Musik mit dem EMS Synthi A, einem semi-modularen analogen Synthesizer, der eine gro\u00dfe Spontaneit\u00e4t im musikalischen Prozess erm\u00f6glicht, erschlo\u00df er sich ein internationales Publikum, gastierte auf gro\u00dfen Festivals f\u00fcr zeitgen\u00f6ssische Musik und war an Projekten beteiligt, die von den Goethe-Instituten in der ganzen Welt gef\u00f6rdert und\/oder unterst\u00fctzt wurden.
\nLangj\u00e4hrige Kooperationen sind Ensembles wie Konk Pack<\/em><\/a>, Toot<\/em><\/a>, Thermal<\/em><\/a>, MIMEO<\/em><\/a>, speak easy<\/em><\/a>, und Duos mit Marcus Schmickler<\/a>, Tiziana Bertoncini<\/a> und Gerry Hemingway<\/a>; j\u00fcngere u.a. zwei Trios mit John Butcher und den Pianisten John Tilbury<\/a> and Matthew Shipp<\/a>, defuse<\/em><\/a> mit Xavier Charles und Roger Turner, LDL<\/em><\/a> mit Urs Leimgruber und Jacques Demierre, sowie Companion Species<\/em><\/a> im Duo mit Jennifer Walshe.
\nAls Synthesizerinterpret realisierte er elektronische Werke von \u00c9liane Radigue, Roman Haubenstock-Ramati<\/a>, Bogus\u0142aw Schaeffer<\/a> und Zbigniew Karkowski und war Solist bei der Urauff\u00fchrung von Peter Jakober\u2019s dort<\/em> mit dem Klangforum Wien beim musikprotiokoll sowie bei der CD Einspielung von Christogher Fox‘ Topophony<\/em><\/a> \u00a0mit dem WDR Synmphonieorchester unter Ilan Volkov.
\nThomas Lehn ist Gr\u00fcndungsmitglied des ensemble]h[iatus<\/em><\/a> f\u00fcr Interpretation und Improvisation, mit dem er Auftragswerke u.a. von Peter Jakober, Vinko Globokar, Anthony Pateras, Jennifer Walshe, J\u00fcrg Frey uraufgef\u00fchrt hat. In seinem neuen Solo Projekt SYNKLAVIA<\/em> vereint er seine langl\u00e4hrigen Wegbegleiter \u2013 das Klavier und den Analogsynthesizer \u2013 in wechselwirksamer Fusion zu einem Instrument. Das k\u00fcnstlerisches Schaffen des heute in Wien lebenden Musikers ist auf ca. 100 Tontr\u00e4gern dokumentiert. www.thomaslehn.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
