about

Miniata Synaxis is music for an impossible liturgy, an imaginary gathering of praying monks where the tropes of polyphony have been sabotaged by an exuberant xenharmonic compositional style. These twenty-six miniatures – or rather, ‘vespers’ – have been written for a physical model of an organ Riccardo Ancona designed to be controlled through a live coding environment.

‘I am extremely delighted by the playfulness emerging from algorithmic counterpoint’ – tells us Riccardo – ‘I enjoy conceiving intricate, absurd, quasi-dysfunctional canons that exceed human’s performative capability, because the perceptual effect, at least for me, is a grotesque sense of amazement. Polyphonic complexity is often seen as a serious matter, although it has a whimsical side that I try to disclose’.
