Vamp at Different Speeds (2012) Duration: 7:30

The English word
"vamp" is often used in certain kinds of music (such as rock or pop)
to designate a recurrent character or section (such as the ending of "Hey
Jude" by The Beatles). A "vamp" in the sense of a simple chord
progression can also be used at the beginning of a piece, as a "hold-on music"
until all musicians are ready to start. This way, it's very close to what in
classical music is called ostinato: a
permanently repeated musical figure.
As a wink: the word
Vamp is also an abbreviation of vampire
- and therefore of femme fatale.
And why "at
different speeds"? Because in this piece, a number of ostinati appear
overlapped at different speeds.
The original version
of this work is for solo Organ. The version for string trio (violin, viola and
cello) was written a few days later (in September 2012).
Premiere: Saturday
20 October 2018, Kulturkirche St. Stephani, Bremen (Germany); by Vyara
Mladenova (violin), Hannah Craib (viola) and Matthias Boutros (cello), during
the concert celebating the 40 years of existence of the Arbeitskreis Bremer
Komponisten und Komponistinnen e.V.
Performing Rights Organization: GEMA (Germany)
