Francesco Pellegrino
“Creating an ocean to drown in” - for tenor saxophone, trumpet with saxophone mouthpiece, synthesizer and live electronics.

A sound subject, a material with its own gesture, sets out to create its own sound space, an environment with which it must then coexist, with relationships of exchange, symbiosis or conflict and domination.

The instrumental and electronic sound research is all aimed at an “environmental” narrative: sound is always both subject and context, habitat and inhabitant.
Within these sound spaces, acoustic and electronic instruments move with written and improvised parts; the set allows for constant reworking of the material and reinterpretation of the environments, varying with each performance, leaving live expression as free as possible.
