Enrico Malatesta plays Eliane Radigue – DIGITALIVE19

Enrico Malatesta plays Eliane Radigue – DIGITALIVE19

Enrico Malatesta is a percussionist and sound researcher, interested in different ways of listening and performing. For the Digitalive19, the section curated by Federica Patti dedicated to algorithmic art with the Romaeuropa Festival, proposed the adaptation for percussion instruments of an acoustic piece from the Occam series by Éliane Radigue, a composer born in 1932 and a pioneer of French electronic music.

In the Occam cycle, which started in 2017 following a long career focused on electronic experimentation, Éliane Radigue, influenced by Buddhist thought, shifted her music research from concrete music to acoustic instruments, in collaboration with various musicians.

Occam Ocean, in particular, represents the synthesis of Radigue’s conception of sound as an autonomous and transcendent entity. The piece is a long orchestral suite which develops like an ocean consisting of liquid resonance. The crystalline sound of electronic instruments is rendered acoustically while maintaining the same characteristics of purity and minimalism.

“The simplest solution is always the best”, stated William of Occam. Malatesta translates this simplicity into an instrumental dimension using sound subtraction, which is connected with an ancient, primordial aesthetic. The artist has readjusted the piece using two cymbals and a framed drum, touched, stroked and beaten for about twenty minutes using various unusual and surprising procedures.

The Pelanda Theatre welcomed the artist centerstage. Spectators were invited to sit on the floor in a circle, close to him and his instruments, as they we part of a ritual. His gestures generated sound that spread in the space through performative act with slow, measured movements. Listening to the performance immersed viewers in a multi-sensory landscape, in which liquid and essential sounds spread through the air like slow ocean waves.

The article is part of the special section that Arshake dedicates to  BACKSTAGE / ONSTAGE, the project that took, for two consecutive years, students from the Rome Fine Arts Academy backstage during Digitalive – a new format dedicated to digital art, curated by Federica Patti and part of the Romaeuropa Festival. Moving from backstage to front stage, in a Festival edition completely dedicated to performance and live events, students were involved in all the preparatory stages, from which they obtained material to be reassembled for this editorial project. The articles, published weekly, build a memory of the works and artists present at the event, capturing highlights from the ‘energetic’ performance works and also their protagonists through a muldimedia documentation. The content structure has been inspired by Antoni Muntadas’ Methodology of The Project, as suggested by Valeriana Berchicci. Credits

Enrico Malatesta – Percussionista e ricercatore sonoro, residente a Cesena, è attivo nel campo della musica sperimentale e della performance. La sua pratica esplora le relazioni tra suono, spazio e movimento, la vitalità dei materiali e le morfologie delle superfici con particolare attenzione posta all’atto di percuotere. Il suo percorso di ricerca è caratterizzato da un forte interesse per la possibilità di produrre informazioni multiple attraverso azioni semplici, al movimento, alle modalità d’ascolto e alla presenza del performer attraverso il suono. Ha presentato il proprio lavoro in Italia, Europa, Nord America, Giappone e Corea del Sud, partecipando a importanti festival di musica sperimentale, contemporanea e arti performative. È fondatore di MU e FREQUENTE, organizzazioni indipendenti rivolte alla realizzazione di eventi, rassegne e workshops dedicati al suono, musica sperimentale e pratiche spaziali, attive a Milano e nel territorio romagnolo.

Eliane Radigue – Éliane Radigue, compositrice francese. Tra gli anni cinquanta e sessanta entra in contatto con i compositori elettroacustici della Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française componendo il suo primo materiale, ispirato alla musica concreta che verrà raccolto su Jouet Electronique ed Elemental I, usciti nel 1967 e nel 1968. Il seguente Usral del 1969 cambia direzione stilistica avvicinandosi in modo significativo alla musica minimalista Nel 1970 si trasferisce a New York e incide il suo primo materiale per sintetizzatore: uno strumento musicale che, da questo momento, prediligerà nelle sue composizioni. In seguito all’uscita di Adnos (1974), presentato al Festival d’Automne parigino, si trasferisce nella capitale francese frequentando il Centro di Studi Tibetani. In seguito a quest’esperienza, i suoi brani hanno risentito l’influenza del pensiero buddista quali il karma e la meditazione. A partire dai primi anni del nuovo millennio, si è dedicata alla composizione di brani acustici tra cui il ciclo per strumenti solisti Occam Ocean.
