ColoCordatura for violin and guitar (2011 / rev. 2012).
Duration: ca. 13’
In this work composed for a Sibelius Academy project, Vesikkala features different groupings of time, each with their own characteristics: “In combining those substances, I aimed at continuously shifting the timbral focus of the listener by using a multitude of extended pitch and noise material, as well as whispered parts”. An intense counterpoint of two human voices and their instruments runs through the composition. Small exceptions are the cadenza for solo violin and a rhythm-oriented block with the description “rustico”.
