takadanobaba [2018] for voice, violin, trumpet, alto saxophone, bass clarinet, electric guitar, prepared piano and percussion
Abstract
Like most Tokyo metro stations, Takadanobaba is filled with the very noisy and chaotic sounds of humanity. Sometimes such places seem paradoxically empty and almost still. In this work a field recording of the station underwent an analogous stripping of sound - removing all but the most prominent frequencies. The resulting "empty" recording was then annotated and orchestrated for an ensemble of 8 performers. The work was written for and is dedicated to performers from the Tone List group.
