Anatomic NotebookThe structure of this piece is an attempt to integrate a diversity of different materials and strategies into a unified piece
of music. Anatomic Notebook consists of 23 different pieces collected in three volumes: 5 Tutti-pieces, 5 solo-pieces and
one volume of several pieces for duos, trios and quartets. In most of the work, two or more of these pieces are at play simultanously.
As the title indicates, Anatomic Notebook is written in a "disordered" manner, without any overall plan for the piece. Some
pieces are interrelated by different versions and developments of the same idea, whereas other pieces are totally independent
and unrelated. Different moods, techniques and desires resulted in a kind of musical diary noted down during the course of
two years, with an agglomeration of these diverse energies as unifying principle. In other words, there is a certain element
of autobiography, where the chaos, superpositions and interruptions of life has become the guiding principle for the composition
of Anatomic Notebook. And hopefully, the glitches between different approaches creates the tension and friction that I desire
from music. It must also be said that the version played at this concert is but one of several possible organisations of
the Anatomic Notebook.
