confined walls of unity
Brian Ferneyhough, the so-called "Father of New Complexity," wrote six extremely complex and virtuous works for flute solo: Cassandra’s Dream Song (1970) for flute solo, Unity Capsule (1975-1976) for flute solo, Superscriptio (1981) for piccolo solo, Carceri d’Invenzione IIb (1984) for flute solo, Mnemosyne (1986) for bass flute and pre-recorded tape and Sispyhus Redux (2011) for alto flute solo.
His music causes a constant struggle for the performer: a struggle against the limits of the instrument, against the limits of notated music and against the limits of the body and mind.
As a result of her doctoral research, Ine Vanoeveren will present Brian Ferneyhough's integral oeuvre for flute solo.
