„Tumbling Alice“ is the second part of 3 pieces with
different instrumentations.
It is dedicated to people who find the power to break
out of fixed patterns, surmount repetition in their lives, to get more of
energy and dynamic.
This music contains all these things:
Repetition of small simple patterns in a fixed
metrum, short motives with the roots in rockmusic (Vcl) and big band music
(Chick Corea „Falling Alice“ - piano
part), movements which are played first in a steady tempo, but later tumbling,
realized with the technics of a composed accellerando or rallentando.
The fast base tempo runs through like the time in our
lives also does, spending the piece a kind of strong energy from the beginning
until the end.
The listerners focus leaves the fixed metrum to
concentrate at the phrase itself, which has its own autonomous move, arranged
over 2 or 3 other phrases which appear at the same time, small forms will be
produced by this phrases – not fixed in measures - and undulation will be also
made with dynamic.
On the one side it is a kind of minimal music with
strong power of dramaturgy, but the intention is rockmusic, the „processing
eruption“, always directed forwards.
For the musicians it means perfect rhythm feeling (a
lot of rehearsals), the purpose is a „groovy tumbling“, in addition expression
and emotion, surprising the listener to develop energy.
