“Hommage à Daniel Libeskind” consists of three books (Vol. I, Vol. II, Vol. III) that can be performed separately or in sequence (asa single work). Vol. II was commissioned by the “Ensemble SurPlus” with support by the Ernst von Siemens Musikstiftung and premieredin Freiburg on 8 December 2012 by “Ensemble SurPlus”.
The work uses construction plans for the Jewish Museum in Berlin by Daniel Libeskind. It can therefore also be considered a homage to that work of architecture.
The work consists of miniatures with constantly changing instrumental combinations from solo to full sextet (quintet in Vol. II). These miniatures (18-22) overlap or follow each another without interruption (“attacca”).
The basis idea is that of sustained notes without any expression or parametric change (“dinamica statica”). These notes can, so to speak, be “upgraded” (through expression) or “devalued” by eliminating the pitch component in favour of unpitched noise.
