Album DE 2007 on Edition Wandelweiser Records label
Classical (Contemporary, Experimental)

For Mauser (1932-2006) Recorded: Dortmund, 3 October 2004 Layout: Mess Media, Berlin Printed by: Heinen Druck, Düsseldorf Made in Germany "what do you do, if you work with just intonation and wish to write a piece for organ? you have to deal with the relation between equally tempered and over- or undertonal (just) intonation. 2001 i had several opportunities to make a study of some wonderful instruments. this eventually put me on the path towards this composition. in this piece only those frequencies of the organ sound that have close to whole-numbered ratios (+/- 6 cents) to a fundamental (in this case C’ at about 32 Hz). because the frequencies are never perfectly tuned - a result of the organ’s tempered tuning - more or less strong beatings and frictions emerge, that rhythmically and timbrally shape the inner life of the sounds. a realisation of this piece strongly depends on the disposition of the instrument and the performance space. the version at hand corresponds approximately to the first performance by eva-maria houben at st. suitbertus church, dortmund october 3, 2003. for this cd i tried to record the organ in such a way that the playback, instead of reproducing the church environment, projects the instrument into the listener’s space." ________________ Packaged in a gatefold cardboard sleeve
