Aliona Yurtsevitch in concert
Aliona Yurtsevich is een zeer veelzijdige componiste. Ze komt oorspronkelijjk uit Minsk (Wit Rusland) en studeert momenteel aan de HKU voor haar masters in Music Composition.
Ze was al eens te gast in Café Sonore tijdens een 4 uur durende special over de Stichting Vrouw en Muziek.
Van Aliona is het volgende statement: “There are two philosophies regarding the creation of music/art. In one, the artist/composer/musician imposes a preconceived or
preplanned idea on the working media in order to create an art form designated for a specific audience. The other philosophical approach is one based on inspiration. An impulse is seemingly received from an external source but is ultimately generated on the subconscious level. This latter approach sees the encounter of the artist/composer/musician and the media that becomes the work as predestined. Here, the artist does not shape the work so much as act to bring out the media. We function more as intermediaries, linking the intangible spirit of the work to the physical environment. It is believed that all matter or substance is imbued with a life energy; some of it static, some of it kinetic. With this energy comes a unique signature of form and vibration. The intuitive artist hears the call of this vibration and perceives the true form beneath gross substance, attempting to cajole the spirit inherent in the media to come to the surface and unfold, revealing its true beauty to the observer.”
Vanavond (dinsdag 8 juni) kun je haar werk live beluisteren in De Badcuyop in Amsterdam.
Launched Jagged Poppets heet het duo project met zoals Aliona het zelf omschrijft: “messcherpe sonische sensibiliteit op de grens van vliegen en vallen, stilte en geluid, rust en chaos”.
Aliona Yurtsevich: tedra, percussion toys
Angel Faraldo: live electronics
Mocht je dit missen, op 16 juni is in Zaal 100 in Amsterdam haar recente compositie “3 little pieces for Body and Voice” te horen. Dit werk wordt uitgevoerd door de Britse danseres / zangeres Monique Conrwell.
