Wind Blowing Through Utopia. Form and Impermanence in New Music
Original language description
Utopian concepts have entered European thought since the Renaissance. In music, the first futurist composer was perhaps Claudio Monteverdi. He abandoned the traditional architectural devices in favour of free structures inspired by the expressive components of texts. The subject of Monteverdi?s first opera, Orpheus, is connected with the lyre, an instrument producing short, ephemeral sounds. Since the Renaissance, there has been a constant fight in music between architectural forces and the attacks of transience symbolized by the blowing of the wind. Modern music tends to succumb to ephemerality. This connects composers otherwise so different as John Cage and Brian Ferneyhough. The city of Utopia is in danger of being destroyed by the wind. The composer of the future may well not be a citizen, but a nomad.
