Grisey – Partiels
(1975)

I curate written music as the video project laissez vibrer ("let it vibrate"). Combining the notation of composition with a recording of its performance, I hope the music I share is worth, beyond listening, watching and reading.

The canon of written music I'm drawing from is mostly that of western "classical" music, specialized for works with elements of typographical art, conceptual device, or stretches of definition. I enjoy participating in the cultural revival and reevaluation happening when reproducing this music in an online format.

Preparations & Presentation

Scope

I aim to fill niches: by going outside the standard repertoire, pairing with identifying recordings, or production for large-scale pieces of music—large in the presentational effort, notational complexity, or in literal length.

Engraving

In cases lacking publication beyond facimiles of a composer's draft, the original is engraved with the typesetting program lilypond(1).
