oggetti II (2021), written in Paris between November 17 and December 7, 2021 for the TACETi Ensemble and Thailand New Music and Arts Symposium, is the second work in a larger cycle exploring concise musical objects, gestures, and formal constellations. Over time, my compositional process has become increasingly introspective and critical. oggetti II is an attempt to re-capture the spirit of my earlier works of a more spontaneous and economical nature. It was completed shortly after relocating to Europe once international travel again became possible, and utilizes field recordings captured in Krabi, Thailand where I spent the last seven months of the pandemic. oggetti I (Omaggio a Sciarrino) for wind quintet and antistasis for Ensemble Nikel were composed nearly simultaneously in a 10-day period during the summer of 2014 in NYC. Many concepts and compositional devices are shared, but not musical materials. antistasis, meaning opposition, refers to the repetition of a word or phrase in a different or contrary sense. This was poetically translated through repetition of a small number of musical gestures, or objects, continually recurring and recontextualized by the composite. oggetti I and now oggetti II function in a similar manner, drawing upon limited materials reconfigured in various ways, something like a musical jigsaw puzzle.
