Background: A Pierre (Boulez) is a form of exploration of the dynamic range that oscillates between ppppp and p. Throughout the work harmonics, hisses and wafts of air; sounds that elude definition, are added to the complexity of live electronics. In October 1981, in the heyday of Solidarity, Nono received a commission for a music festival in Warsaw. On September 13th General Jaruzelsky seized power. The festival was cancelled and Luigi Nono lost contact with the friends who had invited him, which only stirred his desire to complete the work - the result was Quando stanno morendo. He dedicated it to 'the Polish friends and comrades who resist in exile, in hiding, in jail, at work - who continue to hope amidst hopelessness, who continue to hope despite their disbelief'. The course of Post-Prae-Ludium per Donau is fixed in all its details, but the score is intended only to be a basic guide for the performer. The technical means of the six-cylinder tuba give the performer freedom to go beyond this guide and create random sound-events. |
