Listen "Almetus: Transitoire"
Episode Synopsis
Almetus' Transitoire expresses the gradual transition from time into eternity that people, buried under the rubble in locations inaccessible to rescuers, experienced after the devastating earthquake leveled the city of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Although the piece is not descriptive of the concepts of time and eternity, the perceptual effect of a sustained sonority and the seemingly unrelated gestures allude to a non-temporal and temporal dichotomy in the piece.
