Jeff Parker, Water on Glass (2016)

Water On Glass is a recontextualization of a piece that I recorded some years back as part of a film score. The original was assembled by editing together chordal pads that I created on electric guitar with a digital delay and some filtering. At the time, I was making music that was very influenced by Vladimir Ussachevsky’s Film Music from the 1960s (recorded at Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center), and musique concrète. I had been thinking about ways that I could expand upon this work for years—and when the opportunity arose to compose for Dal Niente, it was also an opportunity for me to pick up where I’d left off with Water On Glass. I was absolutely blown away by their unique sound and group dynamic, as well as their dedication to helping me realize this work—as much of the way that I achieve compositional finality is through a process of trial and error. It is an honor and an absolute joy to work with Ensemble Dal Niente.
