Espace Musique for Bassoon and String Quartet, dedicated to Mr. Gerald Corey, is meant to enlarge the chamber music repertoire with a work combining bassoon, as a soloist, with the entire group of the string quintet. The piece takes about 12 minutes. The name "Espace Musique" represents Ottawa Canada's first new music society, founded by Gerald Corey in 1979. The words mean "a place for music" in French, and with a division of the letter "q" in "musique" the English words "space music." I conceived this work by transforming original melodies into a complex music. This transmutation is thought to be carried out across a wide spectrum of music materials involving space, time, fate, circumstance, and human transgression. This conformed exactly to the words "Espace Musique," my title. I conceived it as a distinction between what we are led to hear and what we might finally know. My composition is based on a discourse combining a sort of archetypal magic with contemporary writing, blending various forms of melody, homophony, and polyphony leading to heterophony. Espace Musique for Bassoon and String Quintet is structured in four modules: I.-
Memories
presents tunes as a site of aural memories and as a reservoir of human experience, reflecting a concern with the investigation of the relationship between space, history and imagination. II.-
Unforgettable Times
evolves from a fusion of lyrical, evocative and cheerful aural memories and images. Their resonance derive from a poetic and vibrant spiritual force. The intention to achieve in this section "magic sonorities" is concretized in the soloist's special effects, requiring virtuosity. III.-
Wild Rhythms
is shaped with unchangeable melodious and rhythmic wild turmoil. IV.-
Soundscape,
the final module, crystallizes the structural ambiguities of the entire work, using an ample breadth of materials and techniques, and retaining the cohesive aural vision of the whole.
I wish to express, throughout this work, a phantasmal itinerary which truly is an eternal voyage into a remembered and unforgettable world.
