Sample Page

This is an example page. It’s different from a blog post because it will stay in one place and will show up in your site navigation (in most themes). Most people start with an About page that introduces them to potential site visitors. It might say something like this:

Hi there! I’m a bike messenger by day, aspiring actor by night, and this is my blog. I live in Los Angeles, have a great dog named Jack, and I like piña coladas. (And gettin’ caught in the rain.)

…or something like this:

The XYZ Doohickey Company was founded in 1971, and has been providing quality doohickeys to the public ever since. Located in Gotham City, XYZ employs over 2,000 people and does all kinds of awesome things for the Gotham community.

History of Flute Repertoire

Short History of Flute Repertoire in general

Of course we conservatory-trained flutists can play everything in our traditional repertoire. For a complete list, one can check other sites, books and catalogues (e.g. http://www. fluteworld.com/ ).
My favorites span many centuries, beginning with ancient melodies from various cultures and continuing via winding paths to music being written this very minute!

SOLO REPERTOIRE (FLUTE ALONE)

EARLY MUSIC
Historical Anthology of Music, Volume I: Oriental, Medieval, and Renaissance Music: Revised Edition (Oriental, Medieval, & Renaissance Music).
Archibald T. Davison & Willi Apel (Editors) A required textbook in college, it has proven to be an indispensable resource for many of my solo projects, most recently for one involving ancient music of Greece.

RENAISSANCE

Also in my college years I fell in love with Renaissance dance music, playing it first in “Early Music” groups on recorder or Renaissance flutes and later in solo versions on my Western flute.
Favorite composers: PRAETORIUS, GERVAIS and JACQUES MODERNE

BAROQUE

BACH BACH and more BACH!! Partita in A minor, Sonate in C-major (yes, as a solo), and Sciarrino’s adaptation of the Toccata and Fugue in G minor.

MARAIS Les Folies d’espagne

HOTTETERRE Ecos & Gigue

CLASSIC

STAMITZ Caprices. Thanks to Zdenek Bruderhans I now appreciate the humor and style in these little pieces!

ROMANTIC

DONJON Etudes de salon.  My junior-high teacher had given me The Modern Flutist (pub. Southern Music Co.) so I could practice the Karg-Elert etudes and orchestral excerpts collected there, but I eventually figured out how much fun the (unassigned!) Donjon pieces were!

KARG-ELERT 30 Caprices. Yes. When I was fighting them in the 9th grade, they were NOT my favorite. Way too many accidentals and modern in a weird way. By high school I was proud I could play them, and by the time we were analyzing and memorizing Number 30 in grad school for Prof. Alex Murray I had learned to love them. And I had learned how “romantic” they really were!

FRENCH IMPRESSIONISM

DEBUSSY Syrinx. Of course! It’s not only “lovely music”, but it’s a brilliant composition, as I discovered when I had to analyse it for a musicology prof in grad school. I also had the privileges of studying it with Marcel Moyse, who claimed he had played it for Debussy himself (!), and, years later, being asked to perform it in Paris’s Chatelet. Unforgettable experiences for this girl from Michigan….

BOZZA Images. This was one of my “signature pieces” for awhile. The most fun performance, however, was a spontaneous “concert” I gave to a group of children at a friend’s home.

20TH CENTURY

This is where making categories gets really interesting. Besides the afore-mentioned works of Karg-Elert, Debussy and Bozza, there is EVERY kind of music to be found in this time period—from the neo’s: neo-Baroque, -Classic, -Romantic, -Impressionist, to 12-Tone, Avant-garde, Experimental, Spectral, Concrète, Minimal, Complexity, Simplicity, World, New Age, Crossover, etc. etc. And we flutists can find all these trends right in our own repertoire: the history of 20th Century music unfolding in hundreds of pieces written for just for flute alone!!

My personal list, including some “firsts” in the solo repertoire for flute:

Claude Debussy Syrinx (1912) Symmetrical scales, exotic/ancient themes, theater
Sigfrid Karg-Elert Sonata Appassionata (1917) Tonality of romanticism pushed to the limit
Paul Hindemith Acht Stuecke (1927) Quartal harmonies
Ruth Crawford-Seeger Diaphonic Suite (1930) (a language speaking of both serial techniques and minimalism)
Edgar Varese Density 21.5 (1936) Particularly significant! “Blocks of sound”, percussive key-clicks, extremes in registers and dynamics…

Then come solos in a more traditional vein: Ibert (1936) Honegger (1937), Bozza (1940), Jolivet (1944), etc.

And then:

Roman Haubenstock-Ramati Interpolations (1957) and

Luciano Berio Sequenza (1958) Complex twelve-tone rows serve as the basis for exploiting the agility of the flute, with wild, pointillistic leaps and even more extreme changes of dynamic and register. New also is the space-time notation, and the introduction of a harmonic multiphonic.

After Interpolations and Sequenza the door is wide open and music for solo flute is THE medium for modern composers. From then on, it is almost easier to list the composers who did not write for solo flute. But I continue with  my personal choices here in the “mini-history” of the 20th century

Kazuo Fukushima Mei (1962) Reference to ancient music, glissandi, quarter-tones
B.A. Zimmermann Tempus Loquendi (1963) Extremes in dynamic & register, changing between c-, alto- and bass- flutes, open elements in score
Burt Levy Orbs (1965) use of extended techniques (especially multiphonics & tongue-rams)
William Brooks poem piece white-gold blue (1969) Adding voice, theatrical aspects, open score, improvisation
Mauricio Kagel Atem (1969/1970) Music theater, improvisation
Brian Ferneyhough Cassandra’s Dreamsong (1970) More extended techniques, open form
Toru Takemitsu Voice (1971) Voice, extended techniques
Heinz Holliger Lied (1971) “Noise” timbres, ad lib. amplification
Michael Manion Constellations (1974) Graphic score, live electronics
Robert Dick Afterlight (1975) Waves of overblown multiphonics
Younghi Pagh Paan Dreisam Nore (1975) Extended techniques
(Brian Ferneyhough Unity Capsule (1976) Complexity, multi-layered to the extreme)
Thorkell Sigurbjornsson Calaïs (1976) Reference to ancient or archaic music, dissembled flute
Jon Gibson Equal Distribution 1 (1977) Minimalism
Salvatore Sciarrino All’aure in una lontanza (1967) (first performed 1977!) “Whistle tones” inside the flute, air-sounds
Karlheinz Stockhausen In Freundschaft (1977/1983) Extended serialism, prescribed motions
Kaija Saariaho Laconisme de l’aile (1982) Sounds from noise to pure flute tone organized in a graded scale

Flute solos continue to make musical history of course, but I will leave the chronological listing to offer some of my favorites alphabetically.

    Typography

    We paid a lot of attention to getting the basics of our typography right in the new WordPress Blog theme. The purpose of this HTML is to help determine what default settings are with CSS and to make sure that all possible HTML Elements are included. For example we looked at headings. Lovely headings.

    H1 Heading

    Quite often typography is one of most ignored aspects of test link website design.


    H2 Heading

    Here are two small flourishes that can add a little bit of polish to a blog or text-heavy site to liven it up a bit.


    H3 Heading

    Poor typography can make your website feel bland or boring, and at worst impact readability.

    Quite often typography is one of most ignored aspects of test link website design. Poor typography can make your website feel bland or boring, and at worst impact readability. Here are two small flourishes that can add a little bit of polish to a blog or text-heavy site to liven it up a bit.

    Blockquotes got some love too – because everyone loves a good quality blockquote to quote around. On both desktop and mobile.

    Frameworks make decisions for you about how to organize, structure and design a site. Pattern libraries don’t separate styling and markup, making them tough to use in a truly modular fashion. We weren’t satisfied, so we made a thing that doesn’t do that.

    Shortcodes

     

    Here is where the beauty lies. We’ve taken that extra-mile and crafted an advanced but simple to use shortcodes plugin that will allow you to give structure and bling to your pages and posts. To ensure ease of use, everything is visual, nicely packed in a modal window accessible from the WordPress editor. Look for that funky P button. More about shortcodes in documentation.

    KARLHEIZ STOCKHAUSEN POLES –  in a version for flute and analogue (Serge) synthesizer
    The international project POLES is an hommage to Karlheinz Stockhausen centered around his composition POLES (1969-1970) for two players and multichannel sound diffusion. POLES is a so-called “open score”, music notated with a system invented by Stockhausen which consists of +’s and -’s instead of normal notes and which allows for various instrumentation.Aiming for a historically informed performance Camilla Hoitenga (USA/D) and Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) have made a version for flutes with the rare 1970s Serge modular synthesizer once belonging to composer (and some time copyist for K. Stockhausen) Michael Manion which is combined with current sound diffusion possibilities.

    Performers:

    Camilla Hoitenga (USA/ GER) flutes (piccolo, C-, alto-, bass-flutes)
    Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) SERGE modular synthesizer, piano /inside-piano sounds
    Francesco Colasanto (ARG/MEX), Tammo Sumera (EST) sound diffusion

    FLUTE AND PERCUSSION
    DUO with NORBERT KRÄMER

    –Sounds of time with works by , SHIDA Shôko, JOVANKA TRBOJEVIC
    –Japanese Gardens with KAIJA SAARIAHO, NAKAMURA Noriko, KANNO Yoshihiro

    „Sounds of Time“ – in Japan zirkular statt linear, fließend ineinander übergehende Phrasen anstelle von logisch aufgebauten Abläufen. Klänge, die über uns hinwegfluten wie Wellen am Strand und uns von einer Welt in eine andere mitnehmen. Klänge auch, die zeitlos sind, auf uralte Rituale anspielen, auf Gesänge beim Sumô-Ringkampf, die in die Gegenwart übersetzt und auf westliche Instrumente übertragen werden, auf Bass-Flöte und Piccolo, auf Trommeln Gongs und Triangel. Individuelle und kombinierte Klänge, inspiriert von Vorstellungen animistischer und spiritueller Überlieferungen, vermittelt durch moderne Technologien (Spektralanalyse von Schwingungen) und bereichert durch vokale Äußerungen, mal meditativ, mal erregt.

    Die Flötistin Camilla Hoitenga ist eine Musikerin, die sich vielseitig und idealistisch der Neuen Musik verschrieben hat. Zusammen mit dem Schlagzeuger Norbert Krämer, ebenfalls ein Spezialist für Neue Musik und Mitglied verschiedener einschlägig bekannter Ensembles (z.B. anthos, welches sich in erster Linie der Aufführung der Werke von Karlheinz Stockhausen widmet), stellt Camilla Hoitenga im heutigen Konzert Werke japanischer Komponisten vor und kontrastiert sie mit europäischen Stücken.

    The Flute Music of Kaija Saariaho – Some notes on the musical language

    FLUTE MUSIC OF KAIJA SAARIAHO

    The Flute Music of Kaija Saariaho – Some notes on the musical language

    Excerpt:

    This piece (Laconisme de l’aile) was the first in which she explored the possibilities of integrating all these effects into a coherent and distinctive musical language.  Pierre Gervasoni later called this language a “harmony of timbres”.[1] In Laconisme de l’aile, and in her following compositions, she has organized the extended techniques according to a range of timbre, and is thereby able to create and build tensions normally associated with harmony while at the same time developing richer polyphonic textures for solo writing. (“If it’s too linear, it’s very boring,” she once said to me.)

    Specifically, the piece begins with the spoken poetry, interrupted by sighs but gradually developing into a scale of pure flute sound. This is more or less the capsule of the whole composition, a piece concerned with interrupted transformation of one type of sound to another, of certain musical gestures to another.

    [1] in a monograph published by Edition Wilhelm Hansen A/S Copenhagen, ca. 1987, transl. by Deke Dusinberre.

    The Flute Music of Kaija Saariaho – Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

    A performance guide to the flute music of Kaija Saariaho, with detailed guides for Laconisme de l’aile, NoaNoa, Cendres (fingerings), and Dolce Tormento.

    Excerpts:

    Dear Flutists,

    First of all I’d like to thank Lena, D. Andrew, Elena, Shin-Ying, Laura, Amanda, Kate, Hannah, Evelin, Claire, Shanna and many others for asking me questions so many questions about Kaija’s music. Since I have been immersed in her musical language for so many years, it has been a good exercise for me to try to “stand back” to take another look in order to help others learn this language.

    To all who are reading this: thanks for your interest and do feel free to contact me if you have further questions or comments!

    Before going on to the more technical details addressed here, I’d like to recommend you to read The Flute Music of Kaija Saariaho – Some notes on the musical language. In striving for an authentic interpretation, whether of Beethoven or of Debussy, it is essential to know “where the composer is coming from” and thereby be able to determine what his or her notation signifies. (….)

    Whereas the tension of much 20th century music depends on rigorous attention to metronomic markings and even the production or tones as abstract durations with as little attack or release envelopes as possible, Kaija’s music needs a certain flexibility in the rhythmic pulsation and tone production. In this sense her quarter notes are to be interpreted “traditionally”, that is to say, one may vary how one attacks and release the notes, use vibrato at one’s discretion, etc. She emphasizes, however, that her music is not “romantic”, not a call to “wallow” in interpretation according to one’s feelings.

    For her, the structure of the music is always important. She notates her scores carefully and respect must be given to all markings. Nothing in her scores is superfluous or intended to challenge the interpreter beyond his capabilities. All is in service of her composition. The musical tension, however, comes from the context of the breath, and phrases are to be created organically in this context. The interpreter, therefore, must literally “breathe life” into the score in order to realize the music.

     

     The Flute Music of Kaija Saariaho – A Personal History

    Excerpt:

    In 1982, Kaija Saariaho and I were each a participant at the International Summer Courses for New Music in Darmstadt, Germany.  We met in the first week while we were waiting in line for lunch at the cantine. I don’t remember what we spoke of, though Kaija remembers I spoke to her first. I remember she was a striking figure in a long black dress and long, flat, black shoes. (The rest of us were in shirts, jeans and sandals….). Be that as it may, I learned that she was a composer and she learned that I was a flutist. The composer-teachers of that first week were what we called the “French Contingency”, notably Gerard Grisey, Tristan Murail, and Michael Levinas, and we enjoyed visiting their courses and concerts and socializing with them afterwards. Kaija had just moved to Paris to study at IRCAM and I was also a big fan of Paris, so already we had our interest in this city and French culture in common.

    Photo: Tarvo Varres

    –KARLHEIZ STOCKHAUSEN POLES in a version for flute and analogue (Serge) synthesizer
    The international project POLES is an hommage to Karlheinz Stockhausen centered around his composition POLES (1969-1970) for two players and multichannel sound diffusion. POLES is a so-called “open score”, music notated with a system invented by Stockhausen which consists of +’s and -’s instead of normal notes and which allows for various instrumentation.Aiming for a historically informed performance Camilla Hoitenga (USA/D) and Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) have made a version for flutes with the rare 1970s Serge modular synthesizer once belonging to composer (and some time copyist for K. Stockhausen) Michael Manion which is combined with current sound diffusion possibilities.

    Performers:

    Camilla Hoitenga (USA/ GER) flutes (piccolo, C-, alto-, bass-flutes)
    Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) SERGE modular synthesizer, piano /inside-piano sounds
    Francesco Colasanto (ARG/MEX), Tammo Sumera (EST) sound diffusion

    38th PARALLEL
    ENSEMBLE with JENNIFER KOH, DAVÓNE TINES, JEAN-BAPTISTE BARRIÈRE, ALEKSI BARRIÈRE

    Violinist Jennifer Koh was born into a family of Korean immigrants in the U.S. Her parents were refugees during the Korean War – her mother from North Korea and her father from Seoul. French composer Jean-Baptiste Barrière’s first musical experiences were offered to him by his grandmother’s Korean partner, whom he considered his grandfather, and who disappeared during an attempt to return to North Korea in the 70s. Together, Jennifer Koh, Jean-Baptiste Barrière, and Aleksi Barrière have created The 38th Parallel, a multimedia pansori (a traditional form of staged narrative song created in 17th-century Korea) that explores the impact of war and displacement over three generations though testimonies, music, and visual arts. The 38th Parallel examines individual and familial transformation and how human lives are affected and altered by the experience of cultural uprooting and assimilation.
    Composer/Multimedia Artist: Jean-Baptiste Barrière
    Director/Dramaturge: Aleksi Barrière
    Concept/Artistic Direction: Jennifer Koh

    FLUTE AND PERCUSSION
    DUO with NORBERT KRÄMER

    2018 New Works by DAVID BOHN, STEFAN HAKENBERG

    –Sounds of time with works by , SHIDA Shôko, JOVANKA TRBOJEVIC

    –Japanese Gardens with KAIJA SAARIAHO, NAKAMURA Noriko, KANNO Yoshihiro

    „Sounds of Time“ – in Japan zirkular statt linear, fließend ineinander übergehende Phrasen anstelle von logisch aufgebauten Abläufen. Klänge, die über uns hinwegfluten wie Wellen am Strand und uns von einer Welt in eine andere mitnehmen. Klänge auch, die zeitlos sind, auf uralte Rituale anspielen, auf Gesänge beim Sumô-Ringkampf, die in die Gegenwart übersetzt und auf westliche Instrumente übertragen werden, auf Bass-Flöte und Piccolo, auf Trommeln Gongs und Triangel. Individuelle und kombinierte Klänge, inspiriert von Vorstellungen animistischer und spiritueller Überlieferungen, vermittelt durch moderne Technologien (Spektralanalyse von Schwingungen) und bereichert durch vokale Äußerungen, mal meditativ, mal erregt.

    Die Flötistin Camilla Hoitenga ist eine Musikerin, die sich vielseitig und idealistisch der Neuen Musik verschrieben hat. Zusammen mit dem Schlagzeuger Norbert Krämer, ebenfalls ein Spezialist für Neue Musik und Mitglied verschiedener einschlägig bekannter Ensembles (z.B. anthos, welches sich in erster Linie der Aufführung der Werke von Karlheinz Stockhausen widmet), stellt Camilla Hoitenga im heutigen Konzert Werke japanischer Komponisten vor und kontrastiert sie mit europäischen Stücken.

    Sounds of Time with Norbert Krämer 

    Repertoire includes works written for them by  SHIDA Shôko, Jovanka Trbojevic, KANNO Yoshihiro

    „Sounds of Time“ – in Japan zirkular statt linear, fließend ineinander übergehende Phrasen anstelle von logisch aufgebauten Abläufen. Klänge, die über uns hinwegfluten wie Wellen am Strand und uns von einer Welt in eine andere mitnehmen. Klänge auch, die zeitlos sind, auf uralte Rituale anspielen, auf Gesänge beim Sumô-Ringkampf, die in die Gegenwart übersetzt und auf westliche Instrumente übertragen werden, auf Bass-Flöte und Piccolo, auf Trommeln Gongs und Triangel. Individuelle und kombinierte Klänge, inspiriert von Vorstellungen animistischer und spiritueller Überlieferungen, vermittelt durch moderne Technologien (Spektralanalyse von Schwingungen) und bereichert durch vokale Äußerungen, mal meditativ, mal erregt. (H.-D. Reese)

    Flute & Piano/Synthesizer 

    Three Projects with FLUTE AND PIANO and/or ANALOGUE SYTHESIZER


    KARLHEIZ STOCKHAUSEN POLES

    Camilla Hoitenga and Taavi Kerikmäe
    Photo: Tarvo Varres

    In a version for flute and analogue (Serge) synthesizer.
    The international project POLES is an hommage to Karlheinz Stockhausen centered around his composition POLES (1969-1970) for two players and multichannel sound diffusion. POLES is a so-called “open score”, music notated with a system invented by Stockhausen which consists of +’s and -’s instead of normal notes and which allows for various instrumentation.Aiming for a historically informed performance Camilla Hoitenga (USA/D) and Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) have made a version for flutes with the rare 1970s Serge modular synthesizer once belonging to composer (and some time copyist for K. Stockhausen) Michael Manion which is combined with current sound diffusion possibilities.

    Performers:

    Camilla Hoitenga (USA/ GER) flutes (piccolo, C-, alto-, bass-flutes)
    Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) SERGE modular synthesizer, piano /inside-piano sounds
    Francesco Colasanto (ARG/MEX), Tammo Sumera (EST) sound diffusion

    PODCASTS:

    Neue Musik Leben with Irene Kuka (September 2024)

    Flutist Camilla Hoitenga talks about her pathway into playing flute and contemporary music and about how she follows her interest and her gut feelings. She also reflects on traveling, routines and her friendship and collaboration with Kajia Saariaho.

    Flute Talks with Renata Kambarova (January 2022)

    I met Camilla Hoitenga as member of faculty of FXSI : Flute Xpansions Sonic Immersion. (Thanks Shanna Pranaitis for all this!)

    Her workshops were always informative, with a nice atmosphere, extremely inspiring. They gave me very interesting tools and gave me courage to create and share moments of music interacting with art. One month later, I was in Darmstadt and was surprised to learn that Camilla herself was there too! And couldn’t resist asking her the favor of interviewing her for this podcast, and I am very honored that she accepted.

    Radio interviews:

    Radio New Zealand with Byran Crump on Three to Seven (13 June 2023)

    Camilla Hoitenga plays Aile du Songe

    “American flute player Camilla Hoitenga is in Tāmaki Makaurau as a short notice replacement for Auckland Philharmonia soloist Ana de las Vega.

    Camilla will be playing ‘Aile du songe’, a concerto by her friend, the Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho, who died earlier this month.

    Bryan Crump spoke with Camilla about their friendship, and being part of the German avant-garde music scene in the heyday of Karlheinz Stockhausen – it turns out playing Stockhausen when busking was quite lucrative.”

    Personal Story

    PERSONAL STORy:

    As a concert artist, I’ve been fortunate enough to perform around the world, teach both professional and aspiring musicians, and make lasting friendships wherever I go. I live a life full of music, travel, and meaningful connections. 

    However, what many don’t know is how my journey began. After college, I tried to follow the expected path—marriage, teaching, settling down. However, during graduate school, I realized that this mold didn’t fit me. So I left that life behind on an adventure to make it as a musician. In 1980, I arrived in Germany with just $200 and two suitcases. I knew a couple of people, but I had not applied for scholarships and I had no family or external support. I planned to earn a living as a street musician, playing for passersby in bustling city squares. And, this I did! (See the photo!).

    Finding My Own Path

    Viewing my street-playing as “paid practice,” I played as much classical repertoire as I could from memory and also increased my skills by joining Irish bands and learning folk tunes. Already in the first months I was “discovered”: I was invited to perform with various local orchestras and chamber groups and then offered a job teaching flute at a music school. From there, opportunities continued to open up: I played concerts, won a solo competition, and soon started collaborating with composers like Karlheinz Stockhausen and Kaija Saariaho. Over time, I concentrated on performing solo repertoire and gradually carved out a career that felt truly mine.

    Creating a Life Outside the Box

    The road wasn’t exactly direct,  nor was it smoothly paved: my income was often precarious, and emotional support in this pre-internet time of communication wasn’t always at hand. But somehow I carried on, refusing to settle for a “real” job. And sure enough, the right people and opportunities kept appearing, enabling me to perform in incredible places from art museums to Carnegie Hall, from Germany to Japan, playing music which I’m passionate about. Eventually, despite the unconventional path I took, I reconnected with my family and, later in life, was also “discovered” by an interesting man who insisted on marrying me!

    Looking Forward

    Today, I’m living proof that you can create a fulfilling, meaningful life outside the box, no matter how winding the path might be. Grateful to have found people and tools helping me along the way, it is now my mission to inspire you to find your own way to success.

    Personal background:

    As many of you might know, I’ve gone through my own share of issues along the way: two divorces, moving to a foreign country without a scholarship or mentor, dealing with parental rejection, following my music passions vs “settling down,” changing partners, figuring out how to be healthy, embracing different cultures and philosophies, not to mention dealing with complicated “complexes” vacillating between superiority and (more often) inferiority. 

    When I came to Europe in 1980,  coaching wasn’t a “thing” — except for athletes. But with the help of good friends, wise books and persistent searching on my part — not to mention the steadying presence of my blossoming flute career ! — I eventually found my way. I made a life in Germany, I reunited with my parents, and through my extensive travels on four continents and in dozens of countries, I learned how to adapt to many many other cultures. I also have a wonderful husband, good health, and spiritual peace of mind!

    For ALL of these experiences, especially if I can use them for the benefit of others, I am extremely grateful!! ❤️

    “Thank you so much for your time and your heart!  I am so grateful!” —C.A.

    “After our session it was much easier to organise my projects. Things are falling into place now.”—K.J.

    “You’ve given me a lot of food for thought — can’t wait to explore it all!” —D.B.

    Three Projects with FLUTE AND PIANO and/or ANALOGUE SYTHESIZER


    KARLHEIZ STOCKHAUSEN POLES

    in a version for flute and analogue (Serge) synthesizer
    The international project POLES is an hommage to Karlheinz Stockhausen centered around his composition POLES (1969-1970) for two players and multichannel sound diffusion. POLES is a so-called “open score”, music notated with a system invented by Stockhausen which consists of +’s and -’s instead of normal notes and which allows for various instrumentation.Aiming for a historically informed performance Camilla Hoitenga (USA/D) and Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) have made a version for flutes with the rare 1970s Serge modular synthesizer once belonging to composer (and some time copyist for K. Stockhausen) Michael Manion which is combined with current sound diffusion possibilities.

    Performers:

    Camilla Hoitenga (USA/ GER) flutes (piccolo, C-, alto-, bass-flutes)
    Taavi Kerikmäe (EST) SERGE modular synthesizer, piano /inside-piano sounds
    Francesco Colasanto (ARG/MEX), Tammo Sumera (EST) sound diffusion

    DUO with NORBERT KRÄMER

    –Sounds of time with works by , SHIDA Shôko, JOVANKA TRBOJEVIC
    –Japanese Gardens with KAIJA SAARIAHO, NAKAMURA Noriko, KANNO Yoshihiro

    „Sounds of Time“ – in Japan zirkular statt linear, fließend ineinander übergehende Phrasen anstelle von logisch aufgebauten Abläufen. Klänge, die über uns hinwegfluten wie Wellen am Strand und uns von einer Welt in eine andere mitnehmen. Klänge auch, die zeitlos sind, auf uralte Rituale anspielen, auf Gesänge beim Sumô-Ringkampf, die in die Gegenwart übersetzt und auf westliche Instrumente übertragen werden, auf Bass-Flöte und Piccolo, auf Trommeln Gongs und Triangel. Individuelle und kombinierte Klänge, inspiriert von Vorstellungen animistischer und spiritueller Überlieferungen, vermittelt durch moderne Technologien (Spektralanalyse von Schwingungen) und bereichert durch vokale Äußerungen, mal meditativ, mal erregt.

    Die Flötistin Camilla Hoitenga ist eine Musikerin, die sich vielseitig und idealistisch der Neuen Musik verschrieben hat. Zusammen mit dem Schlagzeuger Norbert Krämer, ebenfalls ein Spezialist für Neue Musik und Mitglied verschiedener einschlägig bekannter Ensembles (z.B. anthos, welches sich in erster Linie der Aufführung der Werke von Karlheinz Stockhausen widmet), stellt Camilla Hoitenga im heutigen Konzert Werke japanischer Komponisten vor und kontrastiert sie mit europäischen Stücken.
