Morning Music, freie Improvisation Musik

Morning Music, freie Improvisation Musik

Marie Takahashi (Geige ) and Simon Rose (Bariton Saxophon)

This proposal is within the Free Category and responds, in a direct manner, to the request for‘recordings that deal with the limits of sound and hearing itself and/or that acoustically explore the resonance relationship between sound, body and space’.

Close-listening-as-composing in the course of performance

Through research in studio sessions, recording and performing publicly together Marie Takahashi and Simon Rose (2019 -), with their unusual combining of viola and baritone saxophone, have developed a singular way of composing in real-time through close-listening in performance. By giving to the moment, undistracted by the desire to ‘perform’, they allow their collaborative music to unfold. This developed through a dedicated and involved process.

A somatic music

While this proposal is appropriately located in the Free Category, there is also an inescapable connection to corporeality. An important stage for the duo was their collaboration with dancer and choreographer Dr. Andrew Wass. During the pandemic Andrew Wass invited Simon Rose and Marie Takahashi to meet for a period of research: weekly session for a period of 3 months (New Start, Berlin Senate 2020). The aim, to explore ways of creating work with musicians by applying dance practice and knowledge. The interdisciplinary work’s focus was somatic: extending bodily practices to playing, performing and composing in music. This led to music making that didn’t separate sound from space, the musician’s bodily presence and spatiality becoming a material that is also inherently compositional.

‘the resonant relationship between sound, body and space’

This sensorial, relational work informs Takahashi-Rose’s current compositional approach to music-making. In Morning Music, the duo play with their characteristic fondness for harmonics, freely employing timbral material, microtonality, multi-phonics, and dynamic variations. Silence and space becoming as equally important as the instruments. Their sense of musical temporality, at each encounter, embraces each day’s difference, informing their compositional flow.
