Program Notes
The idea following Sonorous Landscapes is to create artificial and imaginary landscapes of sound. There is no conscious attempt to simulate the sonorous impressions of any visual “natural” landscape – although at some points of the piece the associations may be something inevitable – rather than an idea of contemplation of the sound as a real or imaginary image.
The world of the electronic sound can be unimaginable loud or (un)perceptible quiet. Infinitesimal small and immeasurable big. The conscience of this inhumane dimension of the electronic allows an immense collection of possibilities, sometimes in dimensions beyond our normal or usual perception.
In this piece nothing happens. There are only a few contrasts. Transitions form one state to the other. Small processes. Linearity. One sole line.
