the biophony project

Modules

Modules is an ensemble work for 4 or more non-specific instruments. Conceived by Mike Ladouceur and co-written with Elissar Hanna and Alessandro Apolloni, the work consists of different cells of music ranging from single measure fragments to 8 measure melodies representing the core musical content of the piece. These ideas, originally written in different meters, were then placed in a musical matrix and transformed to work in a single 4/4 meter.

You can listen to a brief demo of MODULES to get a better understanding of the piece with the video below:
