Kali Malone - (2020) Studies for Organ CS

 

Self-released – none

“Studies for Organ” is a rehearsal demo tape featuring the early iterations of some of my organ pieces. I recorded these as a form a note taking during the compositional process, not thinking of the recording as a final form but as documentation of an evolving practice. Fascinated by the transmutability of the musical material, I later went on to apply variations of these compositional structures to other organs and instrumentations. Revisiting these recordings today, I doubt I am finished exploring this material. These are the raw and elemental forms of a music which can be reiterated upon endlessly.

Self released.
