I find the chronological course of a
composition to be crucial.
The flow should be carefully structured by contrasts and
accents, and supported by modulations of various kinds. To put
it this way: I construct and deconstruct sounds.
Seen from this perspective, my composing compares much to the
work of a sculptor: by creating lengths, depths and heights I
create dimensionality.
