The exploration of new cello techniques is a challenge for me in which I seek to approach other musical cultures, beyond the Eurocentric ones. This leads me to a kind of musical genre between improvisation and written music: the imaginary folk music.
This Celtic-inspired piece takes as a visual reference the reflections of light on different surfaces: water, glass, mirrors, etc. For this, I investigated the technique based on the reflex of pressing and releasing the cello strings, combining the sound of the grips and dronebowing with natural harmonics without changing position. This creates a play of lights around the composition.
Lines is a project of cellist and composer Maria del Mar Ribas with producer Lukas Streich. In it a parallelism has been established between the original work: Suite For Cello Solo in G Minor and its rework in electronics. In this live session the cello part is captured and transformed in real time. The natural sounds of the environment are mixed with the lively duo performance between the acoustic part and the modular system. Prélude: Composed and performed by Maria del Mar Ribas Rework Version recomposed and performed by Lukas Streich.
This rework based on an own composition includes various types of electronic music processing. The original piece called Nana (Lullaby) was recorded by the orchestra Filharmonia de Madrid. The re-composition reflects the listening of the piece from the unconscious mode of the dream. How would a child listen to the song while asleep?
