“Inside the instruments” contains 5 electroacoustic pieces composed
between 2004 and 2008.
They
are based on vocal or instrumental recordings, in which the instruments
are not used in conventional way. Therefore some "slap" in "Inside the
pipe", some sounds gotten with maximum pressure and low velocity of the
bow in "Con l’arco", some sounds gotten stopping, striking, plucking
and brushing the strings and the instrument’s body of a piano in
"Hammerklavier".
A
sort of ideal trip inside the noisy parts of the acoustic instruments
and of the human voice. The electronic device allows to analyze and to
resynthesize such complexes sounds, extracting some features from it,
exploring the zone that goes from the noise to the pitched sound,
modifying the attack or the decay of it, and assembling it in the
time-domain in order to build an organic form.
