In this work, newly configured chords are extracted from their original context and placed into an altered musical fabric, creating a subtly blurred sound that generates striking contrasts within the string quartet. Traditional tonal harmonies counterbalance a variety of alternating distance scales and different heptatonic scales (e.g., heptatonia secunda). Instead of following a melodic arc, these scales serve as the backbone to the ever-evolving texture of the piece.”Distances is a journey through a linear musical form with harmonies borrowed from the fourth movement of Bartk’s String Quartet No. 5 at its core. The newly configured chords, taken out of context and placed in an altered musical fabric, sound somewhat blurred and serve to create a contrast as played by the string quartet. The traditional tonal harmonies offer a counterpoint to scales of alternating distances, different heptatonic scales (e.g. heptatonia secunda). Rather than tracing a melodic arc, these scales provide a backbone to the continuously changing musical fabric of the piece.” dm BrandenburgThis award-winning work won a prize at the 2020 Bartk World Competition and was selected as a mandatory composition for the 2021 Bartk World Competition.Hungarian Translation Overview (ttekints)Distancescm mvem egy lineris zenei formn vgigvezet utazs, melynek formai kzppontjban Bartk V. vonsngyesnek negyedik ttelbl klcsnztt harmniai idzetek llnak.
