description
The flute is ideally equipped as a mouthpiece for the singular aesthetic of Giacinto Scelsi (1905-1988): a voice but speaking no words, ethereal in tone, capable of infinite gradations of pitch and volume, unconfined by barlines or the twelve semitones of the diatonic scale. Just as the man himself gave no interviews, took no posts and even avoided having his photograph taken, but chose a life of aristocratic isolation, his music stands apart, belonging to no school and subject to few conventional rules. The early Quays and Tetratkys can appear improvised, and much of his music was notated by intermediaries: the composer saw himself more literally than most of his colleagues as a channel or vessel through whom music flowed, as though it had a life independent of and predating him: a mystic priest of dissonance.
