SCHAFFNER, GABI - MAURICIO PUCCI: FAZZOLETTO PER UN ETERNITÀ (LP)


"Mauricio Pucci: Fazzoletto per un Eternità" (Handkerchief for an Eternity) has evolved after three years of composition work and research for and about the (speculative!) transgender composer Mauricio Pucci (1899-1926). It combines under the term "Pandemic New Music" nine works of sound art that pay homage to the musicality of "nasal explosions". At the same time, it tells an adventurous biography that transcends national and gender boundaries, linking Pucci's life path with the fate of the New York composer Charles Tomlinson Griffes. Puccis "Handkerchief for an Eternity" shows an approach to New Music that includes the body and its fleeting expressions. Its subversive humour may be understood as a criticism of the still meagre representation of female and diverse musicians in music history. "Fazzoletto" forms a multimodal project by the artist Gabi Schaffner, in which poetics, composition and performance merge seamlessly. It is a homage to the immediate living world and the vulnerability and impermanence of our existence." Created by: Gabi Schaffner. Raw Audio Productions 2020.
