This should not be surprising, given that digitalisation is a defining element of our time in all areas of society, including art and compositional technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is impossible for me, however, to contemplate doing without the sound of instruments played live; for me, the performer's expressivity will always be a central aspect of musical expression. The sounds created, however, are also fed into a computer via microphones on the instruments; they are then electronically transposed, modulated, delayed, filtered, looped... and then played back in real time via loudspeakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe programming of the electronics is therefore a fundamental part of the composition. My close involvement with baroque music over many years has naturally also influenced my compositional style, although rarely has it done so in such a distinctive way as in my \u003cem\u003eToccata and Pavane\u003c\/em\u003e, in which I used baroque works as a musical foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese works were inspired by unusual portrait photos by the Liege based artist and photographer Sophie Langohr; I have composed new solo works based on virtuoso pieces from the early baroque in order to achieve a corresponding interaction on a musical level.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50464572539211,"sku":"1111756","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/6d0e7f2f-cfe0-41ea-8e87-0f1e08e98b2a_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727276678","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/compositions-with-live-electronics","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
