Info zu Interference

When TRPTK granted me carte blanche for this album, I knew precisely what direction to take: to commission new music that pushes the boundaries of the harp and challenges our perceptions of it. In pursuit of this vision, I sought out two exceptionally distinctive composers: Valerio Sannicandro and Tony Roe.

Valerio Sannicandro utilises a plethora of extended techniques, incorporating a diverse range of textures, timbres and voice to create captivating sonic events.

Tony Roe, in contrast, working with electronics and devices to expand the harp’s sonic palette and create entirely new sounds. Blending acoustic and electronic elements going into a world of innovative sonic exploration.

Additionally, I carefully selected pieces by renowned composers Kaija Saariaho and Toshio Hosokawa, whose works speak to the essence of this musical exploration.

Doriene Marselje, harp

Doriene Marselje
(1988) has played as a soloist as well as with many ensembles, orchestras and musical theater companies over the past 20 years. The experience with these diverse performance practices inspired her to develop her own production in which different influences and disciplines come together.

In 2020 Doriene created a new audiovisual sound performance based on contemporary repertoire for solo harp with composers such as Takemitsu, Berio, Yun, Cage and Van Rossum. No average repertoire for the harp, but compositions in which, among other things, with extensive techniques, the extremes of the instrument are explored. As an extension of this quest for expressive possibilities, she enriches the familiar sound of the harp with special analog effects and creates a whole new sound world.

Especially for this performance, Doriene worked together with Tango Soundsystem (TU Delft) on the development of an interactive light installation. This extensive, modular installation embraces the harp in the middle, as it were, and responds to the frequencies of the harp. As a result, the music can not only be heard, but also seen. That interplay of harp, light and technology is in a landscape.
