Program notes

Working in an impressionistic language, the composer attempts to recreate an underwater meeting of sounds from the Venezuelan coast and the echoes of nineteenth-century Europe, as a shipwreck of music and sonic art. Noronquí means “Northern Key” in pidgin English from the Venezuelan archipelago of Los Roques. It explores the sound of Claude Debussy's L'isle Joyeaux both in processing the pitch material and the sound of the piece itself, was previously recorded.
