Description:
Isolarion III is a transcription and recomposition of my orchestral work Isolarion: Rituals of Resonance (2013), which was itself an elaboration and expansion of an earlier brass quintet. This piece reduces the heavily decorated, ornamented and coloured score to its essential constructive elements: lines and layers that collide and connect in a flowing continuity. The first movement of the orchestral version was dedicated to Pierre Boulez, who had commissioned the work Isolarion: Rituals of Resonance by the Lucerne Festival Academy. In light of the recent news of his death, I dedicate this piano duo to his memory.
