Stanislaw Hansel:- Psychic Music I (first perf.)
Although never previously performed publicly, this piece is
seminal to my thinking in terms of a new mental music.
Composed in Spring 1986,it is a short piece in two movements.
The first movement presents a sequence of a short musical
material, which I call 'forcefields'. Many of these notes are
played extremely softly to help bring out the tension in the
material. The first movement is called 'Prime' and is
intended to prime the listener up for feeling the very
energies of the forcefield.
The second movement is called
'Elicitation...... . Materialisation', and employs suitably
irrelevant material, most of it soft and staccatissimo, which
is intended to further strengthen the energies felt during
the first movement.
