N'vi'ah by jppo

N'vi'ah is an Old Testament word meaning prophetess.
A prophetess conveys one or more divine messages often in the form of inspired songs. And many times her words are cryptic, requiring interpretation or even translation. This work uses isolated phonemes as musical material. Intelligible words are not articulated, leaving to the listener the imagination of what their contents and meanings could be. N'vi'ah was commissioned by the Ibermúsicas Project, and composed at the Human Interaction Laboratory - Diego Portales University in Santiago de Chile. It is dedicated to Federico Schumacher.
