Axamer Folio (2015) for saxophone and drumset (new interactive documentation and more information at: axamerfolio.wubbelsmusic.com) Axamer Folio is a modular network of 24 pieces for saxophone and drumset, with no pre-set order, form, or duration. The individual pieces (which include duos, solos, and duos that can be separated and combined with other pieces) project a small number of musical objects in an extremely diverse range of performative and notational contexts, from rigorously specified to indeterminate, graphic, and text scores; from tightly synchronized duo music to phasing loops, list structures, and free improvisation. The result is a kind of self-similar labyrinth of possibilities, within which the performers trace a path. The work currently consists of the following pieces (it will continue to expand with future performances):
*- 'Frame-compatible' pieces. All written in the same tempo and metrical structure, and can be combined in multiple permutations. |
