Irreversible transformations 8’59” (2019) Quadraphonic.

“In my early childhood I once dreamt that I could not make my way to my little bed (which had bars and for me signified a haven) because the whole room was filled with a finely spun but dense and extremely tangled web […]. Every movement of an immobilized insect caused the entire web to start shaking […]. These periodic suddenly occurring event gradually altered the internal structure of the web, which became ever more tangled. […] These transformations were irreversible; no earlier state could ever recur. There was something inexpressibly sad about this process: the hopelessness of elapsing time and of the irretrievable past. The memory of this dream from long ago had a definite influence upon the music that I wrote at the end of the 1950s.” (György Ligeti (1993), in Bernard, Jonathan W. «States, Events, Transformations». Perspectives of New Music 31).

This work is an evocation of the textural compositions of that time, of which Ligeti was one of its main exponents.
