IMMATERIAL
Chaya Czernowin ‘’Immaterial’’ for 6 amplified voices (2021)
- A Book of Madrigals and Intermezzos
- A Sound Theater
Neue Vocalsolisten
Immaterial is the final part of the triptych »Vena« and itself consists of the two parts A book of Madrigals and Intermezzos and Sound theater. The piece is an experiment on the question of what happens when the voice is detached from its affectedness. What happens when the voice is just a sound, or the essence of an emotion, or a color, a movement, a line? The main part of Immaterial is an imagined, immaterial »sound theater«: the sensory drama of the madrigals becomes a wordless, storyless theater, where pure sensations and modulations in sensory perception from visual sound to felt sound encourage the audience to become their own storytellers.
