Conversation for B flat clarinet and live digital processing
Composed by Rolf Boon
Performed by Fernando Domínguez
Electronics by Shaun Bellamy
Conversation for B flat clarinet and live digital processing is an experimental work that explores a dialogue between an acoustic instrument and the computer-generated responses realized using Ableton Live. Conversation also interrogates extended techniques for the clarinet to provide provocative material for digital elaboration. The work is about two performers engaging in a conversation with each other creating a sonic tapestry of luscious timbres and rhythmic counterpoint coupled with a variety of evocative sonic textures.
