Description
The idea of composing a cycle came after Daniel D'Adamo composed 'Lips, Your Lips' for voice and electronics (2010), which was then followed by 'Keep Your Furies' (2012) 'Later, Air Lie' (2013), 'Traum-Entelechiæ' (2016) and 'Fall, Love Letters Fragments' (2017), all of which complete the cycle presented on this disc.
"In 2010 while waiting for the first rehearsals of a concert in Sao Paulo (Brazil) in my hotel room, I found myself with several days of free time. With no piano, computer or music paper, I started experimenting with totally silent vocal emissions of an improvised text, pronouncing it in an extremely detailed way, spelling it out but avoiding the vibration of my vocal cords.
During the silent enunciation of a text, tiny sounds occur inside the mouth itself, lips clash, the tongue hits the back of the teeth and palate, it slams against its inner parts, the whistling sounds are modulated by the shape of the tongue, they pass between the teeth, resonate inside the mouth, are interrupted by a occlusive consonant. In the concentrated listening to these minimal sounds - breaths, gasps, hisses, murmurs, frictions, whispers, spasms - a musical intimacy of a particular sensuality is established, linked to their evocative power. All this takes place in an infinitesimal musical scale. DANIEL D'ADAMO
Personnel: Isabel Soccoja (voice), Nicolas Valette (flute), Laurent Camatte (alto viola), Elodie Reibaud (harp).
