Epizody

Sinfonia III Erinnerung, for String Quartet, Ensemble and Live Electronics 19.10.2019 12:59

©2008 by Peter Swinnen This piece, commissioned by the Spectra Ensemble for their participation in the Gouden Vleugels Contest 2008 in tandem with the Fenix String Quartet, is a tribute to Ludwig van Beethoven and Luciano Berio. It takes the fifth movement of Beethoven’s string quartet nº 15 op. 132 and treats it as in Luciano Berio’s Sinfonia. In other words: Beethoven (the past) tries to ‘break...

Sinfonia I Le Journal intime, for Mezzo, Accordeon and Orchestra 19.10.2019 13:18

©1998 by Peter Swinnen Altough written for two soloists (mezzo soprano and accordeon) and orchestra, "le journal intime" is not a concerto, but more a "Sinfonia Concertante". This clearly comes out of the text. In fact, the subject of this text, written specially for this symphony by the Luxemburg poet Jean Portante, deals with the impossibility of "the Hand" (the mezzo) to write into "the Page" (...

Edokaste, for Cello and Piano 20.10.2012 9:30

©2011 by Peter Swinnen Performed by Guy Danel and Richard Whalley (2013) Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard Are sweeter; therefore, ye soft pipes, play on; Not to the sensual ear, but, more endear'd, Pipe to the spirit ditties of no tone: . . . (ODE ON A GRECIAN URN from "POEMS" by John KEATS)

Mancoras, for Flute, Sax, Trumpet, Tuba, Mandoline, Violin, Viola 20.10.2012 9:00

©2007 by Peter Swinnen As is also the case with many of Ligeti's pieces, Mancoras, anagram of San Marco, is based on the fractal with the same name. Since fractals don't loose detail when you zoom in, they are most suitable for creating coherence between several independent layers, each evolving in its own time/tempo. In this piece, micro, meso and macro level are fully controlled by the same prin...

Quar'l, “A quarrel” per Quartetto di Clarinetti 01.11.2003 12:45

©1996 by Peter Swinnen “Quar’l” peut être considéré comme une “aquarelle”. En effet, dans l’esprit globale, cette pièce décrit un “Soundscape”, un paysage sonore assez bizarre, plein d’ événéments. Comme une peinture auditive de timbres... Mais, “Quar’l” est aussi “a quarrel”, une baguarre. L’ élément du début s’ énerve de plus en plus vers la cadence de la Clarinette Basse, pour se ré-établir apr...
