Symmetric Relations and Hidden Rotations an Extensive Structure

from Natural Drift by Stephen Roddy

/

about

Symmetric Relations and Hidden Rotations explores the power of music to transform a listeners sense of place.
The piece opens on the recording of an abandoned public space. An ominous looming musical narrative appears and merges with the sounds of the space to create a single unified musical movement. As the piece continues music and place become increasingly intertwined, with place taking on a musical role.
This development continues until the ending crescendo where the music makes one final and decisive statement before departing to leave only the sounds of the abandoned space in its wake.

New piece formed and composed before during and in response to the excellent 2015 Irish Sound Science and Technology Convocation in Limerick.
