In seinen Kompositionen arbeitet er mit Formen des Erinnerns als eigensta\u0308ndige musikalische Gro\u0308\u00dfe, deren poetischen Wirkung er in Harmonie, Rhythmus und Zeitstruktur erforscht. Au\u00dferdem reflektiert er bspw. in seinem Text \u201ewhy I play my own music\u201c u\u0308ber o\u0308konomische Bedingungen zeitgeno\u0308ssischen Musikschaffens. Er studierte Klavier in New York sowie Komposition in Graz.<\/p>\n Die mikrotonale Parkettorgel ist ein Projekt des Ku\u0308nstlers Florin Stanzer und des Komponisten Forrest Moody. Die aus wiederverwertetem Eichenparkett gebaute Orgel wird ohne Tastatur gespielt, indem Luft von den Ba\u0308lgen direkt in die Pfeifen gepumpt wird. Das Wechselspiel der Ba\u0308lge erzeugt rhythmische Figuren, wa\u0308hrend die Manipulation der Luftsa\u0308ulen durch einen zweiten Spieler eine pra\u0308zise tonale Kontrolle ermo\u0308glicht. Die klanglichen Mo\u0308glichkeiten reichen von mikrotonalen Tonho\u0308henabstufungen, die fein abgestimmte Intervallverha\u0308ltnisse erlauben, bis hin zu komplexen Gera\u0308uschstrukturen. Das Duo komponiert gemeinsam fu\u0308r das Instrument mit hybriden Methoden, manchmal mit pra\u0308ziser Notation, meist jedoch ohne. Der dialogische Kompositionsprozess reicht vom Instrumentenbau bis zum Stu\u0308ck und fu\u0308hrt wieder dorthin zuru\u0308ck.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Free improvisation trio Rapid Zen crafts an unexpected sonic dimension that constantly reshapes itself between chaotic and meditative collages.
