[022] «a conSPIracy cantata» for 2 voices, piano, shortwave radio and electronics (1999)

spi is an electronic cantata which juxtaposes two forms of cryptic message communication: the clandestine world of spy number transmissions on the shortwave radio, and the enigmatic uttering of the ancient oracle of Delphi. spi is scored for two alto voices, piano and electronics. The electronic sounds are made up of layers of radio transmissions, noise textures, pre-recorded voices and sampled piano sounds. The piece weaves together an archaic modal sound world with a chilling cold war atmosphere.

This work won the Gaudeamus International Composition Prize in September 2000.
