In this work, cycles of accumulation and decay move in broad wave-like gestures, recalling the sea. I am fascinated by the potency of the tiniest gesture, syllable or phoneme. Having no ‘meaning’ in itself, the syllable ‘and’ is weightless and transient, yet holds enormous power to link ideas; to create anticipation/momentum. It is like a wave bearing thought towards utterance. …and…11 was composed for, and is dedicated to, Chachi and Lontano.

“The boundary between collection and fetishism is mediated by classification and display in tension with accumulation and secrecy.” Two musical strands run virtually throughout this short piece, sometimes clearly differentiated, at other times more obscure and confused, but always at some level presenting an opposition between an ‘organic’, accretional layer and an ‘inorganic’ abruptly changing one. This opposition can operate not only at surface level – as it does at the beginning, when two highly differentiated instrumental combinations are presented, each with their own characteristic modes of behaviour – but also at a subcutaneous level, when applied to various ways of generating or modifying the basic material. These concerns form only the technical armature and implementation of the piece, of course, and much of the original musical imagery was suggested by Borges’ short story The Circular Ruins.

While giving the obligatory (questionable?) disclaimer about the piece in no way being programmatic, much of the mood and atmosphere of the story was certainly in my mind during the initial sketching stages, and it seems to me that its central conceit – one human dreaming another into existence, by sheer will – is a marvellous metaphor for the act of composition.

Postcards from Eden (i) Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
10 hours Feb 2003
by Chris Adams

“So God sent them out of the Garden of Eden and made them cultivate the soil from which they had been formed.”

Fake Palms
Blue and Green Fluorescents
Oasis in a concrete jungle.

American Flag hanging limply
Between two concrete towers
Like the defeated Sampson
Set to bring the ceiling down.

Increased Security
More Freedom
Only in America

Armed chairs discourage sleep

“Gateway to America”
- Not a place to stop.

The title roughly translatable as ‘conjunction’, Psyzygysm is an exhilarating chamber concerto that brings together an eclectic ensemble in support of the mallet percussion soloist. Psathas’ preoccupation with jazz and traditional music is synthesised in this work into an explosive, headlong rush. The piano, double bass and drum kit work together like the rhythm section of a jazz combo, the winds and string quartet feature wailing, Middle-Eastern-inspired melodies and the percussion quartet create a musical and visual focus to the piece that locks all the elements together. Psyzygysm is dedicated to the composer’s dear friend David Crossan, guardian techno-angel, saviour of computer crashes, and resurrector of long-lost files.
