lamento
for sextet and electronics
2016
Written for the [Switch~ Ensemble], lamento is a work immersed in musico-historical pianto and lament-like gestures and motifs, constantly reconfigured in color and in intervallic increments. As the work progresses, microtonal intervals created by the meta-instruments (piano, glockenspiel and vibraphone) become ever smaller—a symbolic gesture of pleading.
The piece is currently a work in progress with an intended third movement that references the vernacular instrumental music from Brazil called chorinho, which literally translates to “little cry”, or “little lament”.
