Extractions: An interview with Gavin Bryars PARIS - On the Paris stop of a European junket for the launch of a new compact disc, British Composer Gavin Bryars talked to Klassiknet about his "post-minimalist" music ( Cello Concerto: Farewell to Philosophy; One Last Bar, Then Joe can Sing; By the Vaar ). Strongly attracted to percussion instruments, the 53-year-old contemporary of Cornelius Cardew and rocker Brian Eno swapped the violins in an orchestra for a marimba and sound bells. klassik net : Point Music is the new music label of Philips Classics, which commissioned you to write the cello concerto for Julian Lloyd Webber. Did the record company give you any directives about the concerto's composition? Bryars : No, they didn't tell me what key to write it in. They indicated a duration of around 25 - 30 minutes. In the end I came out with 35, which wasn't a problem. Philips did stipulate that Julian and I had to iron out our relationship. I had to could come up with something we would both be happy with. klassik net : Couldn't this be restrictive though, a commission from a recording company whose objective is essentially to sell records?

Extractions: Gavin Bryars' musical clarity apparently has its source in confusion. Early works like The Sinking of the Titanic (1969) were meshes of found sounds and notated segments. When composing more traditional arrangements, he writes for specific musicians, not just specific instruments, so his scores persistently smudge the line between where his transcribed intentions end and a performer's voice begins. And asked from professorial advice, he might reply with a handy paradox. For example, what would the composer, whose touring ensemble includes a keyboard-synthesizer player and an electric guitarist, suggest to a student writing for a mix of acoustic (or "non-amplified") and electric instruments? "I would recommend that the student see what are the acoustic properties of the amplified instruments," says Bryars, who teaches music at De Montfort University in Scraptoft, England. "I remember once, when I started writing for the alto saxophone, a saxophonist told me to think of it as being like a cross between an oboe and a viola, but louder. That tends to make you think of different instruments as already being hybrids. so there are all sorts of ways of blending." To write best for a specific instrument is to understand that it is, in fact, many instruments at once. If his answer has a tidy Zen contradiction at its heart, his music is similarly marked by a monastic intent: stillness, meditaion and the conservatively planted epiphany are all hallmarks of his compositions. Bryars had a surprise hit last year when his most overtly non-secular title;
Decca Music Group - Composers (1943 ), Yorkshire, England. Biography. http://www.deccaclassics.com/music/composers/bryars.html
Extractions: Gavin Bryars is one of Britain's leading composers. He was born in Yorkshire in 1943. He first acquired a reputation in the music world as a jazz bassist working in the mid-sixties with improvisers Derek Bailey and Tony Oxley. He also worked closely with composers such as Cornelius Cardew, as well as founding the Portsmouth Sinfonia, which acquired a cult status for its performances and recordings of the classical repertoire with minimal music skills. The first recording Gavin Bryars made on the Point Music label was released in 1993. This was a new version of the 1970's cult work, Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet, which was a world-wide hit. (Originally, Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet was released on Brian Eno's Obscure Label, alongside The Sinking Of The Titanic (1969), which was his first major work as a composer.) A brand-new version of The Sinking Of The Titanic was released on Point Music in autumn 1994. Releases planned on Pont Muisc for 1996 include an album with his Cello Concerto, featuring cellist Julian Lloyd Webber. Recording for labels other than Point include the albums Three Viennese Dancers, After The Requiem, The Black River, and Vita Nova, featuring the Hilliard Ensemble. In 1995 his String Quartets Nos. 1 and 2 were released, performed by the Balanescu Quartet.

Zimmermann, Bernd Alois Gavin Bryars, born in 1943 in Goole, Yorkshire, is the most provocative and original member of an unusually gifted generation of composers. He started his career from an experimental position rare in British music, and has continued to chart a radical course while attracting an international following. Nonetheless, he has remained steadfastly beyond the establishment and always several degrees ahead of it. This pattern of subversion can be traced to his student days. While reading philosophy at Sheffield University he became a professional jazz bassist and a pioneer of free improvisation. The lessons of this influenced early works such as the indeterminately scored The Sinking of the Titanic of 1969 and the classic Jesus Blood Never Failed Me Yet of 1971. Though their conceptual nature was new to British music, it was thoroughly in keeping with Bryars own creative concerns, combining an openness to experience with an imagination rich in powers of association. A major turning point in his development was the opera Medea , premièred at the Opéra de Lyon and Opéra de Paris in 1984 in a production directed and designed by Robert Wilson. For the first time a large-scale structure gave an ambitious focus for his abiding musical interests: the nature of musical slowness, the role of memory, and the scope of the new tonality that also embraced a dramatic and innovative simplicity. These elements were developed more extensively in his second opera

Zimmermann, Bernd Alois Gavin Bryars, am 16. Januar 1943 in Goole, Yorkshire geboren, machte sich Mitte der 60er Jahre zunächst einen Namen als Jazzbassist. In dieser Zeit arbeitete er unter anderem mit Derek Bailey und Tony Oxley zusammen. 1966 wendete sich Bryars der klassischen Musik zu und kam lernte Komponisten wie John Cage, Cornelius Cardew und John White kennen. 1969 bis 1978 lehrte Bryars am Department of Fine Art der Universität Portsmouth und gründete dort das Laienorchester Portsmouth Sinfonia. Die unorthodoxe Wiedergabe klassischer Werke ist zum weithin bekannten Markenzeichen dieses Ensembles geworden, in das jeder Aufnahme finden konnte, solange er regelmäßig zu den Proben erschien. Das Nebeneinander von virtuosen Instrumentalisten und ungeübten Amateuren führte zu Konzerten, in denen sich völlig neue Sichtweisen auf bekannte klassische Kompositionen eröffneten.
