Susurrus

Susurrus was completed in spring 2011 as a commission for the Pharos Arts Foundation 3rd Contemporary Music Festival in Cyprus. The musical texture of the trio in a large part of the piece is written in Holophonic musical texture creating a complex network of sounds where the functions as a whole are superior to any other subtotals. The combination of the instruments as a single meta-instrument reveals, creates and processes in great detail and precision, most of the sound palette of the instruments. Before and during the composition of the project more than 600 audio units from violin cello and piano, recorded in studio and analyzed on a computer in order to systematize them on a sound to sound logic.
Susurrus was awarded the second-place prize at the Kazimierz Serocki 13th International Composers’ in Warsaw, Poland (no first-place prize was awarded), was the winner of the University of Utah New Music Ensemble Composition Competition 2012 in Salt Lake City, Utah / USA and finalist in the 2011 International Composition Competition in Kunstuniversität Graz in Graz / Austria.
