Sheet Music: ScoreObjetos de imitación : concertino for pianoforte and mixed ensemble / Andrián Pertout.by Andrián Pertout (2016)
|
Product details
'Objetos de imitación' or 'Objects of Imitation' was especially composed for the 2017 - 29th Music Biennale Zagreb (Zagreb, Croatia) as part of the '5-Minute Piano Concerto' project, and is dedicated to Australian pianist Michael Kieran Harvey. The work serves as an exploration of the musical implications of symmetry as an organizational determinant and adopts the novel harmonic concept of 'heights and sums' from American minimalist composer and music theorist (also former student of Morton Feldman) Tom Johnson, eloquently presented in his publication Other Harmony: Beyond Tonal and Atonal (2014), as well as Godfried T. Toussaint's rhythmic construct of 'interlocking reflection rhythms' presented in The Geometry of Music Rhythm: What Makes a 'Good' Rhythm Good? (2013), which has a direct association with the paradiddle rudimentary snare drum exercises that dominate the entire rhythmic structure of the work. The abovementioned musical ideas are intertwined into the philosophical framework of Aristotle's Poetics (c. 330 BCE), which attempts to define poetry (embracing epic poetry, tragedy, comedy, dithyrambic poetry, etc.) as a "medium of imitation" seeking to "represent or duplicate life through character, emotion, or action."
