Description:
The Duo A9 for violin and double bass plays with tempo relations within a rhythmically complex structure and thus generates an extreme intensification and transformation of character whereby syncopation and accent effects underline the absurdity of the course of events. In this piece the composer also plays with register illusions, which are achieved through the use of harmonics on the double bass ... and suddenly the double bass appears as an upper voice to the violin. Written for the principal bassist of the Niederösterreichische Tonkünsterorchester, Michael Seifried.
