Annotation
the piece Atmosphere for percussion ensemble demonstrates the realization of minimalist principles through timbral differentiation, micro-variation and metric shifts. The study is based on a score analysis that includes formal mapping and a component-by-component examination of intonation, metrorhythm and articulation. The analysis is carried out within the minimalist conception of “less is more” and the understanding of minimalism as an aesthetic category, with an emphasis on perceptual parameters and the organisation of time in sound.
