Xaver Rüegg Solo

Double Bass (amplified)

Sound is movement.
timing and placement determines the form;
blocks, stream, scatter, a single sound, silence.
density, pressure and energy up to chaos.

a collection of questions about sound, it’s production, perception and interpretation. a collection of questions about silence, it’s existence and relationship to sound.

double bass as a source and resonator

it’s amplification as a tool for observation/inspection

electronics as a different viewpoint and artificial element

solo as condition and learning process

the search for focus and awareness in music.
