For Viola and Cello. Published 2008. Dedicated to Garth Knox and Rohan de Saram. First performance. Intrasonus Festival Venice, 3 May 2008. "This music was composed during my DAAD residency in Berlin in October — November 2007. If I were to describe it in one sentence, I would say that it is based on the idea of 'two things seen. heard as one'. "a2. a due. is a well-known term to musicians. it is often found in orchestral scores indicating a given passage that is to be played by two instruments of the same family. Although violin and cello could well be regarded as 'first cousins' of the string family, the literal implementation of the term a2 as a 'compositional strategy' would have been too much. for a piece of chamber music consisting of no more than two players. Not surprisingly, this never happens in this work. in fact, the opposite is true. regardless of how it appears on paper. on one or two staves. , the music for each instrument is constantly based on two layers. "This musical 'interpretation' of the title gives an indication as to how the textural format of the piece operates. However, this was by no means the only thought that 'preoccupied' my mind whilst composing this music. Berlin made a profound impression on me. The remnants of the wall in Bernauer Straße and the cobbled two-stone line tracing the wall across where it once stood — a clear reminder of what not so long ago there were two different worlds in one city — provoked a strikingly dramatic effect. Border, death-strip, killing, and escape to freedom had a particularly evocative resonance, especially of the time when I lived for three years in a remote town in Southern Albania right at the border with Greece. There, there was a nameless road whose destination the authorities did not want you to know, but the locals called it the 'death-road'. "In no way programmatic, in this context, the extra-musical dimension of the principal idea is very much part of the piece. Here, the musical and extra-musical interpretations cannot easily be separated, for they are two parts of the same thing. a2. "As if to add another dimension to this idea, there are two versions of this piece. for viola & cello and violin & cello. The first version was premiéred by Garth Knox and Rohan de Saram at the 2008 Intrasonus Festival in Venice.

For Viola og Cello. Udgivet 2008. Dedicated to Garth Knox and Rohan de Saram. Uropførelse. Intrasonus Festival Venedig, maj 3, 2008. "Denne musik er komponeret under min DAAD ophold i Berlin i oktober - den November 2007. Hvis jeg skulle beskrive det i én sætning, ville jeg sige, at den er baseret på idéen om "to ting set. høres som en '. "A2. en grund. er et velkendt udtryk for musikere. Det findes ofte i orkestrale scores indikerer en given passage, der skal spilles af to instrumenter af samme familie. Selvom violin og cello godt kunne betragtes som »første fætre" af strengen familien, vil den bogstavelige gennemførelse af udtrykket A2 som en "kompositorisk strategi 'have været for meget. for et stykke kammermusik bestående af højst to spillere. Ikke overraskende dette aldrig sker i dette arbejde. i virkeligheden, er det modsatte tilfældet. uanset hvordan det ser ud på papir. på en eller to stave. , Musikken til hvert instrument er konstant baseret på to lag. "Dette musical 'fortolkning« i titlen giver en indikation af, hvordan stoflige format stykket fungerer. Dette blev imidlertid på ingen måde den eneste tanke, at "optaget" mit sind, mens komponere denne musik. Berlin gjorde et dybt indtryk på mig. Resterne af muren i Bernauer Straße og den brostensbelagte to sten line opsporing muren tværs, hvor den engang stod - en klar påmindelse om, hvad ikke så længe siden var der to forskellige verdener i én by - fremprovokerede en slående dramatisk effekt. Border, død-striben, drab, og flygte til frihed havde en særlig stemningsfuld resonans, især af den tid, da jeg boede i tre år i en fjerntliggende by i det sydlige Albanien lige ved grænsen til Grækenland. Der var der en navnløs vej hvis bestemmelsessted myndighederne ikke ønsker du skal vide, men de lokale kaldte det død-road '. "På ingen måde programmatisk i denne sammenhæng, den ekstra-musikalske dimension af hovedstolen idé er meget del af stykket. Her de musikalske og ekstra musikalske fortolkninger ikke let kan adskilles, for de er to dele af den samme ting. a2. "Som om at tilføje endnu en dimension til denne idé, der er to versioner af dette stykke. for viola. Den første version blev uropført af Garth Knox og Rohan de Saram på 2008 Intrasonus Festival i Venedig.
