Lys

Written during spring of 2023 for ensemble hand werk.
It was made by deconstructing and reassembling a previous piece of mine: Lystra/Stilla

Lys consists of continually changing, fleeting and fluttering sounds – I imagine them as a continual flow of energy.

This energy is contrasted by sudden, loud, percussive sounds. They mark points from which sounds enter or die out, or where their flow of energy is realigned. Sometimes these points freeze the flow of time, or make it rush furiously forward.
