B-A-C-H .... (sound installation)

4 tuned pipes, 4 speakers, 4 microphones, computer program,

The music of the composer JS Bach represents beauty, sensuality, systematics, perfection, intellectuality. Four organtype pipes, tuned to the frequency of the tones B-A-C-H, are acting as resonance chambers for musical feedbacks. These tubes are hanging in front of four speakers generating feedbacks, which depending on their position pass the odd partials of the tones B-A-C-H. ...
Any individual expression of the composer seems to serve an objective, timeless manifestation to stand. The tones B-A-C-H excited many composers, among them Bach himself, to inspired compositions. Four organtype pipes, tuned to the frequency of the tones B-A-C-H, are acting as resonance chambers for musical feedbacks. These tubes are hanging, like a mobile, in front of four speakers generating feedbacks, which depending on their position pass the odd partials of the tones B-A-C-H.





For the 4-channel composition the four tubes were moved into rotation three times simultaneous and then they eased until nearly stagnation.
