Et Symphoniæ Naturae by Epa Fassianos

Et Symphoniæ Naturae (2020): This work constitutes an ode to nature. The work addresses to the internal harmony of nature and this is represented through the application of pitched resonance on water, stone and fallen tree branches sounds. Heavy transformations were implemented through the use of computer software. Internal dialogues were formulated between the sounds captured from nature and transformed instrumental sounds emerging from traditional Greek instruments as well as piano, in order to enhance the concept of harmonicity within the work, as a metaphorical reference to the inner harmony of nature. For the creation of this work, I was inspired by Parmegiani's "De Natura Sonorum" (1974-75), Vande Gorne's "Bois" (1986), Berezan's "Lightvessels" (2014) and Harrison's "Undertow" (2007).
