If it's short it will be this tall.

Autoduplicity's last performance of their second concert exploration, Machaut + Rauschen, juxtaposing Guillaume de Machaut's ballade, “Dame, ne regardez pas” with several of Peter Ablinger's Instrumente und Rauschen. Leaping from the simple purity of a single melody to the “everything always” of white noise, Machaut + Rauschen explores the hidden complexity in simple sounds and hidden sounds within masses of complex noise. Listening at these extremes reveals how deceptive the very ideas of simple or complex can be.

Featuring:

Peter Ablinger

WEISS / WEISSLICH 17d: Flöte und Rauschen

WEISS / WEISSLICH 17k: Violoncello und Rauschen ("Kreuze")

Piccolo und Rauschen

Das Wirkliche als Vorgestelltes (The Real As Imaginary)

Kyrie after Machaut

Guillaume de Machaut

Dame, ne regardez pas (arr. Rachel Beetz and Jennifer Bewerse)
