Paths leading nowhere, a search leading to nothingness; subsurface there is a trace that, in its lack of direction, actually depicts the way. In three parts. This piece was first performed on 23.5.1997 in Zurich by the Ensemble for New Music (Zurich) under the direction of Johannes Harneit.

Instrumentation: for sextet (fl, cl, vn, vc, mar, pf)

"My form is created entirely out of straight lines and flat surfaces ordered at symmetrical right-angles. Every side, every line is the same as every other. Intersection facing intersection. This is me at peace with myself. I can begin rotating at the slightest movement, yet it is not always possible to forsee my path of motion, for the possibility of changing direction at any moment I leave open. My way is found along my edges or my corners. If I am not resting on a surface then I am moving in this linear fashion."
A square's eye view - its inherent form is the lead for musical transformation.
The ensemble follows characteristic figurations as a compact motional unit. The way leads from a description of the object through to the mechanisms of its motion and on to playfully gestural formulations.
Circular motions, rotation around a fixed axis, gradual advancement over sound layers, using pulses to create structure, fragmentary phases and moments of dancy movement are but a few aspects which infuse throughout this piece.

Five Times ist in fünf Sätze gegliedert, welche die Wahrnehmung von musikalischen Verläufen zu unterscheiden versuchen. Dabei wird zeitlichen Verläufen wie Statik oder Dynamik, Vorhersehbarkeit oder Unvorhersehbarkeit nachgegangen. Der erste Satz folgt dem Aufbau eines Naturtonspektrums und entwickelt sich ausgehend vom Einklang zum weit aufgefächerten Klangvolumen, einen vorhersehbaren Verlauf. Der zweite Satz fokussiert auf der andauernden Entwicklung von musikalischen Elementen wie beispielsweise der Umspielung von Zentraltönen oder der Fragmentierung melodischer Gestalten. Der dritte Satz entwickelt sich, ausgehend von horizontaler Linienführung, verlaufend zu akkordischen Klangspektren. Der vierte Satz schafft Kontrast indem das Tempo der sich entwickelnden Elemente vorerst limitiert wird. Wiederholung und Homorhythmik dominieren das Satzgefüge bis auf dass es zerbirst. Der fünfte Satz sucht die Unvorhersehbarkeit in einer wechselhaften Entwicklung und fungiert als Reminiszenz an Vergangenes: er spielt mit dem Erinnern und streift Motive, Klänge und Strukturen, welche in Satz 1-4 erschienen sind.

"The seagull continues to play. But she is no longer alone. They came one after the other, against the wind. A bassoon is here, a long, thin lament; an oboe, guttural; a horn, horns, various colours, dry in the brass; a deep voice, a sonorous bass draws long, thick threads through the sound carpet. Above me on the craggy ledge sit thirteen seagulls, each with a tone of its own. Highs and lows, warmth and coolness, a mystical choir, a serenade from within the wind."
The number of seagulls in this excerpt from a short story by the Swiss author Andreas Neeser makes reference to the number of instruments in Mozart's famous wind serenade 'Gran Partitia', which also lends its name to Neeser's short story. Published in a volume of stories entitled 'Unsicherer Grund' or 'Unsafe Ground' (Haymon, 2010), Neeser's 'Gran Partita' pays homage to nature and the legends of Bretagne: An observation made at the westernmost side of Bretagne and a metaphor within which man and his emotions are mirrored.
Commissioned by the Bläsersolisten Aargau, my 'Gran Partita' reflects the music in Neeser's text and the nature it evokes - the structural elements of the short story and also the geology and fauna of Bretagne. The instrument's scales symbolise granite, the predominant stone in this area, and the vegetation and topos of the sea and the call of the seagulls. Non-musical parameters define the musical material, the form of which offers absolute priority to the melodic line. This leads to an autonomous sound metaphor comprising lines and colours, that makes the underlying substance as an explanation no longer necessary.
