Label: Discreet Editions

フランスを拠点とする作曲家兼演奏家、音制作の手段としてシンプルさと能動的なリスニングを重視したアプローチを継続してきたClara de Asis、2025年にAnother Timbreより出版され話題となったJakob Ullmannの[Solo I / Solo IV]にてフルートを担当していたRebecca Lane、この二者が長期プロジェクトとして動かしているハーモニーと時間の比率を探求する作品[Distances Bending]。本作は彼女らの友人二人を招きシンセサイザー、フルート、チェロ、ヴァイオリンの四重奏版として記録したものであり、周波数単位で管理された複雑ながらも美しい演奏形態が続きます。







Comes in a 6-panel cardboard eco-pack, with liner notes. Edition of 200 copies.

As a duo, Clara de Asís and Rebecca Lane gather around the investigation of perceptual space, collaborative processes, and the development of pieces that are, more than settled compositions, elastic systems for ceaseless states of becoming. «Distances Bending» is their long-term project, which takes different forms in specific contexts and configurations in their exploration of harmonic and time proportions. Considering the most elemental aspects underlying the geometry of the harmonic series, one continuously rising sonic object (chord) undergoes a process of transformation and illumination as it travels from low to high, integrating a progressive complexification of frequency relationships.

This version for quartet incorporates friends Sarah Saviet (violin) and Deborah Walker (cello) and was originally composed in response to an invitation by Stefan Thut for a performance in Solothurn, Switzerland, in 2022.

Please note: The CD album consists of a single 49-minute track, while the digital version is divided into six separate tracks.
