12 (2024)

12, a solo piece for violin, investigates drones and microtones while testing limits of attention and endurance. A seemingly endless glissando is only interrupted by the player returning over and over again to the same double drone. The piece exposes the audience to an inescapable sense of discomfort by keeping it powerlessly confined by repetition and entrapped between uncanny micro intervals that defy codes of western music composition.
