Xelo Giner

Saxophone musician and teacher of contemporary chamber music at the Conservatorio Superior of Music in Aragon. Concert musician sponsored by the German firms Julius Keilwert.

Iod is the Greek root for violet. Dedicated to the saxophonist Xelo Giner, Iod searches the relationship between the electronics and the saxophone highlighting the instrument sound, and extend it timbre and dynamic wise. The outline of the piece is planned so that the temporal distance between the interactions between the saxophone and electronics are quite short. The strategy to achieve this relationship in the piece, is to compose it as a piece for piano, the saxophone representing the right hand and the electronics the left hand. In this way the different interactions between the saxophone and electronics, create line and counterpoint relations.

“The EMS Network has been organized to fill an important gap in terms of electroacoustic music, namely focusing on the better understanding of the various manifestations of electroacoustic music. Areas related to the study of electroacoustic music range from the musicological to more interdisciplinary approaches, from studies concerning the impact of technology on musical creativity to the investigation of the ubiquitous nature of electroacoustic sounds today. The choice of the word, ‘network’ is of fundamental importance as one of our goals is to make relevant initiatives more widely available.”
