Vivaldi's Spring, "Il cimento dell'armonia e dell'inventione" is an experiment in harmony and ingenuity. Yarn/Wire is a challenge of difference. They attempt to express themselves with various tools. Some tools used in daily life are also included. And they try to create a sensation that has never been felt before. This time, two people applied electric massagers touching a large drum. It was an experience that I had never experienced before. The performance was titled AUDITORY SCENES. Only the person there knows what kind of sensation it was. There were no familiar melodies or harmonies in classical music. You cannot hum along to them, but by seeing the tools used in daily life, you realize that they are right in front of you, like everyday life that passes by, even if you leave it alone, and that they become the driving force to discard ignorance. It is the flow of the Ganges. For those who are there and see it for the first time, it is a test of harmony and ideas. Yarn/Wire passes through the waves of the mind, and the thoughts that come to mind open up a new world. This breaks my shells and walls again, making my outlook more apparent. This is helpful as there are many concerts from November to December.

ヴィヴァルディの春、”Il cimento dell'armonia e dell'inventione”は和声と創意の試みだ。ヤーンワイヤーは相違の挑戦。様々な道具で表現を試みる。日常生活で使われている道具も出てきた。そして、感じたことがない感覚を生み出す試みだ。今回は2人でデンマを大きな太鼓にあてていた。全く味わったことがない体験だ。AUDITORY SCENESと題された公演。その場にいたらどんな感覚になるかはその人にしかわからない。クラシックでおなじみのメロディやハーモニーはないし口ずさんだりできないが、生活の中で使われる道具を目の当たりにすることで、それは放っておいても通り過ぎる日常の様に目の前にあるもので、それは無知を破棄する原動力になると気が付く。ガンジスの流れだ。その場にいて初めて見るものにとっては調和と発想の試練だ。ヤーン・ワイヤーは心の波と浮かんでくる考えを通り過ぎると、新たな世界が開けてくる。これでまた自分の殻や壁が壊れ、見通しが良くなったのた。11月から12月にかけてたくさんの演奏会があるので助かります。

Yarn/Wire presents commissions from two composers fascinated with the nature of sound production and perception. Eric Wubbels’ Diagrams of the Ear is premiered in a new, extended version and finds Wubbels “thinking about hearing, thinking about listening, thinking about the physiology and the neurology and the psychology of listening but then treating that very much with just a sense of curiosity.” Clara Iannotta’s glass and stone is a multimedia exploration of the distinct sonic properties of physical materials.

PROGRAM:

Eric Wubbels - Diagrams of the Ear (Auditory Scene Analysis IV) (2023/24) [WORLD PREMIERE]+
