ECCE INTEGRATIONS

1 May 2014 @ 8:00 PM - 10:00 PM

Mélanie will join the East Coast Contemporary Ensemble ECCE in Boston

She will perform …Entrapercevoir… by Wei-Chieh Lin for harp, alto flute, bass clarinet, violin and cello under the baton of Yoshiaki Onishi.

INTEGRATIONS will also feature the works by Gerard, Grisey, Mark Andre, Liza Lim, Yu-Hui Chang, John Aylward, Schuyler Tsuda and Wei-Chieh Lin. A fascinating concoction of emerging composers and masters.

…Entrapercevoir…‘s note by Wei-Chieh Lin:
Wei-Chieh Lin’s …Entrapercevoir…, roughly translated as “to catch a glimpse of” or “between perceptions,” is a work that focuses on the methodical transformation of the harp sound and its ramifications, as the rest of the ensemble acts as an amplifier of such discourse while creating its own path.
The initial idea of the piece was inspired by Francis Bacon’s paintings and ways in concerning disfiguration, saturation, and the violence of expression. The work thus can be heard as glimpsing a painting from afar, and as the observer slowly approaches, more layers are unveiled yet the imagery becomes more distorted to the point of being unrecognizable, and as one is overwhelmed with only the grains.
The original version of this work was written in 2013 for the ECCE ensemble and was premiered at the Etchings Festival in France.
The composer would like to specially thank Ms. Genin for her tireless efforts and inputs during the revision process.
