The Contemporary Classical Composer's Bullshit Generator
My work aims to incorporate orchestrally-neo-chordal ideas with neo-triadically-linear rhythms whilst composing certain conflicts or rhythmic frameworks. This composition layers all sorts of melodies, before rejecting somewhat chorally, and finishing with an extremely avant-garde series of 'player-music' (as I like to call them). When planning my acoustic gestures, I often find that re-barring a somewhat provocative array of musical parts helps a great deal. For performers, I find that a slightly modernistic approach can often help to improvise 12-tone sculptures - or in some cases, even oppose the device in question. In my most recent work, tetrachords, compositions and 21st-century synergies are all used within literally-intra-polyrhythmic echoes, allowing the audience to perform a variety of fragmentary tempi. Working diametricly means that my focus is always soloistically-based, and never improvisatory.
