VOCES OTRAS - VOICES OTHERS for 2 sopranos, mezzo, contralto, 2 tenors, 2 baritones on stage to Nonsense Vocal Ensemble of Soloists Virginia Majorel and Lucia Lalanne, sopranos Evangelina Bidart, mezzo soprano Valeria Martinelli, contralto and musical direction Martín Díaz and Marco Cuozzo, tenors Alejandro Spies and Jonatan Favilla, baritones María Bonaz and Ricardo Toro, production of Nonsense EVS Commissioned by the Contemporary Music Concert Series THEATER COMPLEX OF BUENOS AIRES Director: Diego Fischerman Nahuel Carfi, general production coordination; Lourdes Maro, production coordination Work based on poems Life seriously (1967) by Juana Bignozzi and The vision (1953) by Silvina Ocampo. Voces Otras / Voices Others combines the poems of Bignozzi and Ocampo in a world of common cross-references, from which particular areas of meaning emerge, related especially to the universe of the feminine. The poems say something that is silent, the music quiets something that sounds. The time of that "I" of the narrators is a kind of fantastic space in which the masculine presence becomes a heavy, obtuse, unsustainable shadow. While Bignozzi needs that discovery of the "non-human" as the only witnesses of a shadowed pain, but that leaves her in a state of orphanhood and nakedness alone with her cry; Ocampo tells us about the need to lose oneself with that Other, for which it is necessary to ignore almost the world, and to make contact with a divine gaze that can justify it. Other voices, is an attempt to illuminate the shadowed, to give voice to what has no words. patriciamartinez.com.ar

Multidisciplinary work freely based on texts by Ramón Gómez de la Serna. ‘Inconceivable’ poses a number of playful scenes as poetic microcapsules, where the narrative guides a labyrinthine journey that leads to a complex of multiple transversalities of aesthetic languages. Live music and music deferred in other temporalities. Images, video windows that come into contact with Other realities. Puppets and scenic spaces that open unexpected places. Characters playing life. The healing of the body, bodies that heal themselves. Bodies that are soul: soulbody.

VOLAR To fly (string quartet / video art) 2011/12 composer/video artIst: Patricia Elizabeth Martínez (Argentina) patriemar@gmail.com performers: The Jack String Quartet Program notes Volar / to fly is a piece that explores the stretching and elasticity of portions of time. Each moment is a unit that is connected with specific temporal macro and micro proportions. This work has an extensible use of glissandos, where the differences on the time extension try to create different functions on the materials. Every progressive transformation of sound should be always considered as an electronic sound without any kind of caesura or break in the spectral behavior of sound. Each material/sound is a texture in progression. There are some parameters that are connected with the intention of “flying” of materials: - The different temporal extensions in opposition with register extension - Directionality (rhythmic and melodic) - Mobility (spectral expansions or gestural activities of the materials) The indication of character for the performers is: “vertiginous, without touching the earth”, just fly. In the performance, it is very important an extreme control and concentration in order to produce a very limited unit of progression from one to another state of the materials. About the macro-temporal units, there are mostly actions that can have just one repetition in order to avoid predictability. Related to pitch organization, the piece proposes a primary nucleus that will be partially developed on different sections of the piece, but it is extremely connected with the original seed. So, pitches are going sometime very far (it is very important its relationship between materials, that creates a kind of constellation), but it is only because the origin is perceptibly clear, and we can perceive it in terms of distance with that primary nucleus. www.patriciamartinez.com.ar

Tenue brillantez   |     Tenuous Brilliance 

(flute, oboe, percussion, violin, cello and video installation 2007)

Surplus Ensemble, Conductor: James Avery

This project allowed the use of the famous “In Nomine” (from the 16th Century) as a starting point for a work. I loved this proposition because I worked with early music in most of my music from more than fifteen years.
The connection with early music is related specially with my concept of “little deaths”. I believe that one of the more relevant characteristics on the early music is the particular way that this music “glorified” the moment of the cadences or endings. Cadences are a metaphor of the death. I call them “little deaths” when cadences are transitory (closure of a section or just a phrase). The strong connection of early music with the idea of the death as a “closure to open a new door” is something fascinating to me, because this little deaths are following surviving moments.This succession of "little deaths" in the music allows for an organic sense of temporality: life and death, night and day, opening and closing of the eyes.

"Desde el silencio" (2006) es un mediometraje que tuvo su primer origen hace algunos años como una obra performática multidisciplinaria experimental en donde se entrecruzan y resignifican distintos lenguajes estéticos: el arte sonoro y musical contemporáneo, la poesía concreta y el video arte; todos traspasados por la utilización artística de la tecnología, en un trabajo de experimentación y producción creativa, social, y tecnológica.
