This piece was inspired by two of Edgar Allan Poe's tales: the incomplete The Light-House and The Fall of the House of Usher. Each tale was boiled down to its main dramatic moments, and the piece was structured as a continuous, cinematic juxtaposition of such moments, aiming to reveal the complementarity of the two tales. My sonic imagination has been driven by images such as the ripples on the surface of the sea, the echoing walls of the lighthouse, the fleeting appearances of the mysterious Madeline Usher, the meticulous exploration and measurement of the lighthouse, or the destruction of the Usher mansion. Nevertheless, each listener of Edgar’s Visions is invited to freely shape their own semantic associations between my sounds and Poe’s visions.
