ATTACCA – Festival for Contemporary Music

Derivas Oníricas
Performance for ensemble & electronics

A collection of scenes unfolds across time and space — sometimes one after another, sometimes in parallel, sometimes overlapping in deliberate dissonance. Sound emerges, dissolves, and reappears unpredictably. The audience finds fragments, layers, coincidences, and memories, shaping a singular experience. What remains is not a story, but the sensation of inhabiting a dream that is still unfolding.

This performance is built through diverse compositional and performative strategies, each chosen according to the intention of a particular scene. They include improvisational games, pre-composed material, structured and free improvisation, visual elements and performative actions. The work moves fluidly between small ensembles, solos, tutti passages, acousmatic textures, and performative moments.

As part of «ATTACCA – Festival für aktuelle Musik» at the FHNW Academy of Music in Basel, students from the fields of audio design, composition, open creation and contemporary music will present their current artistic projects. The programme includes original compositions, performances, improvisations and works by contemporary composers. The concerts will take place over several days in various formats and with different line-ups.
