Froschchor (2018)
In a homage to Earl Brown’s notation, 4 percussion players are playing using their mouth, and the overtones it
creates, while holding a metal lid with their lips, by tapping it with a prepared DIY (Do It Yourself - built by oneself)
vibrating wooden stick. It creates a texture, that is decontextualized because of the slow meter, to a sonic environment
similar to singing animals. It will define a glossary from its natural spectral tendencies, that will allow all sorts of
connections to emerge.
The piece relies on one’s internal ear, to achieve the written pitch, which is controllable in similarities to
whistling: the sound comes from recognition of the sound in an accurate way, used for singing or ear development. It also
suggests that a percussion player doesn't work only with the hands and can create music with all parameters.
Percussion for me is more an approach to an instrument, rather than being able to play marimba or xylophone. There is a
percussionist way to play a violin for example, a method that is omnimusical, a musical approach to instruments of all
kinds, and non instruments that with the right mindset, can be handled as a musical instrument.
Uraufführung am 3. Dezember 2018 in Linz, Schlagquartett Köln
