I followed the example of Galina #Ustvolskaya in that there are no bar lines anywhere found, and everything is notated on a strict quarter-note grid. Also, even more minimalistic, the original score does not have any specification towards dynamics, tempo, articulation, or even if a note is supposed to be held longer.
However, the music itself isn't like it's notated. The whole point was to give a lot of space to interpretation - I have settled on one particular one for this digital version.
One big difficulty with taking what I love from Galina #Ustvolskaya´s music and turning it into a new thing is ...
it's really hard to do that without also copying her vibe of existential doom, endless russian winters and chronical depression. o_0
But I haven't seen enough music that is metrically sophisticated (not rhythmically complex!) like her´s, and I want that...

#NowListening; ‘Suites & Poems’, works by Galina #Ustvolskaya. Hugely varied work, some of it exceptionally powerful.
