81. Louis Andriessen And "process-music": Discussion Walter Young, Jeff Harrington, Samuel Vriezen, Steve Layton Excerpt from anewsgroup conversation louis andriessen and processmusic WY I like http://www.niwo.com/steve/newsgroup1.html

Walter Young, Jeff Harrington, Samuel Vriezen, Steve Layton: Excerpt from a newsgroup conversation: Louis Andriessen and "process-music" W.Y.: I like Andriessen's music for the same reason I like Birtwistle's music despite the repetitiveness, you get a dramatic sense of visceral outburst that is missing from more "classic" minimalism. that is not to say that loud noises are an excuse for a lack of ideas, but it usually makes for a higher level of contrast than something more cool, seamless or obviously pop-influenced like Torke or Nyman. J.H.: But Birtwistle has an immense number of amazing things going on at once, all of them contributing to the musical momentum as a whole. With Andriessen, I get the feeling that much of the musical decision-making was the result of process - even the dramatic outbursts (OK, time for a BOOM BLAH BLAH). This process-based decision-making style generally leaves me cold. S.V.: I think it would be incorrect to completely deny that; however, Andriessen places high value on 'wrong notes' and composing 'intuitively'. Typically, in discussing a piece, he will start outlining the large-scale form, which is often based on numerical time-proportions, give a long discussion of harmony, talk a lot of cultural history amiable nonsense, then shyly admit that in actual fact the 'system' didn't yield what he wanted and he composed all sections out 'by hand' anyway. Which I believe you can hear witness, for instance, the very precise timing of the 144 hammer-chords at the start of

Gormenghast Articles Strips Genealogy ... Next A skull, a spider and a scherzo Louis Andriessen's most recent work, De Trilogie van de Laatste Dag The Trilogy of the Last Day Odyssee , a Beppie Blankert dance performance, Andriessen employs the modest means of a quartet of women's voices, but with it spans the duration of a full hour. In that sense Andriessen has an impressive track record. In the seventies he formed several ensembles, in which he himself often played. His primary aim was not to get his own music performed, but mostly to bring about a change in the way composers, musicians and audiences dealt with music. De Tijd ), about velocity ( De Snelheid , about matter ( De Materie ). The subject of his latest large-scale piece, De Trilogie van De Laatste Dag , is death. But what can music possibly say about Death? Let us forthwith dispel any suspicions of autobiographical composition: Andriessen penned the first notes of De Laatste Dag Rosa In fact, he states, De Trilogie van De Laatste Dag is not even about death itself, but about the way in which artists from various periods and cultures dealt with death.

88. Louis Andriessen M Is For Man, Concert Review. louis andriessen M is for Man, Music, Mozart and DeTijd BBC Symphony Orchestra cond. Martyn Brabbins, with New London http://www.musicweb.uk.net/SandH/Dec99/andressen.htm

Concert Review Louis Andriessen M is for Man, Music, Mozart and De Tijd BBC Symphony Orchestra cond. Martyn Brabbins, with New London Children's Chorus The Barbican, 10 December 1999 Swapping one minimalist composer for another, the film-maker Peter Greenaway has forsaken his former collaborator Michael Nyman in favour of the 60-year-old Dutchman Louis Andriessen for his latest project, M is for Man Music Mozart. This was presented by members of the BBC Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican last Friday 10 December. If atonality is the world in chaos, minimalism represents that other source of contemporary Angst, the fear of automatism or man placed at the mercy of machines. It is conveyor belt music. At least Andriessen's handling is slightly more refined than Nyman's brutal repetitiveness, but they are still both inclined to render audiences unconscious, Nyman with a sledge-hammer, Andriessen with an anaesthetic. Greenaway's silent film is peopled by expressionless, naked actors whose dispassionate voyeurism suits the non-committal mood of the music. The mezzo-soprano Cristina Zavalloni sings a poetic commentary into a microphone. The words appear on the screen, not as subtitles but as an integral part of the film. The score punctuates the action. A snatch of Mozart's C major piano sonata K545 ('for beginners') heralds the birth of genius. A horror chord stabs at the sifting of body parts in a tableau resembling 18th century anatomy lessons.
