Luigi Turra (b. 1975) is a reductionist/electroacoustic composer.
His main interest is in the aural balance between silence, tactile perception of sound and reseach about the aleatoric music.
Trough the manipulation of concrete and acoustic sources, he develops acoustic paths in which listeners experience continuous pauses and abrasive sound tensions.
Starting from the capture of small sounds and noises, Luigi Turra creates pieces of music, that are references to beauty of the imperfection.
Its poetic aim is to reduce the signs to a minimum to reduce them to their archetypes.
His work is published from labels such as Non Visual Objects (AT), and/OAR (US), Koyuki (IT), White Line (UK), LINE (US), Dragon’s Eye Recordings (US), Trente Oiseaux (DE) and 901 Editions (IT).
本作はフランスの小説家マルグリット・デュラスの触発された楽曲／アルバムという。収録は長尺1曲。かすかな楽音、マイクロ・ノイズ、謎めいた声によって成立している音響作品である。しかし、長い曲を聴いている印象はない。むしろ持続の只中にいるという感覚を持つ。では、それは何か。たとえるならば、まるで映像を欠いた映画のような音響的持続なのだ。いわば沈黙の生成であり、密室の中で響く気配のようにも聴こえる。
“Active for years in the experimental music movement, highly esteemed by people devoted to musique concrète, Turra is an Italian sound artist and graphic designer who stood out for his personal, refined, minimalist style, conveyed in works for labels such as LINE, Trente Oiseaux, Dragon’s Eye Recordings, just to mention some”
