“momentum "I": death & escape” is a piece for bass flute and live electronics composed in 2019 and was commissioned by the 20th Weimarer Frühjahrstage für zeitgenössische Musik Weimar. The piece is developing a continuum of repetitive, rhythmic models which are in a constant counterpoint with counter-repetitive live-generated electronic sounds. The acoustic image of the live electronics is filtered by impulse responses, derived from the resonant parts of the bass flute. The ultimate goal is the creation of an electrified, electroacoustic experience that is characterized by acoustic hybridity and extends the sonic vocabulary of the bass flute. The piece was written for and is heartily dedicated to Carin Levine.
