| Abstract: | surfaces is part of James Saunders’ ongoing project on the sonic properties of materials. Each piece in the series explores the way in which elementary actions elicit sounds from specific types of materials. In surfaces, all of the materials are flat. The sounds are produced through manual manipulation or the use of tools and objects in conjunction with the surfaces. The score uses verbal descriptions to specify action types; these vary between singular instructions and longer, more complicated sequences. Instructions may be repeated, reapplied to the same surface or transferred to a different one. Over the course of the performance, the surfaces become transformed, potentially resulting in detritus. First performed: Simon Limbrick, hcmf//, Huddersfield, 18-19.11.11 |
