“Aura In Visibile” treats the piano as a sound source which is put in vibration by external mechanical exciters. In this environment the flute’s sound and the pianist’s action wander in search of subtle variations inside the resonance.The flutist and pianist are like two explorers who try to capture the most stirring resonance of this vibrating universe and convey it to the listeners.
The vibration of the string is obtained by a mechanical system of exciters (projected by the composer) which is controlled in real time by computer.
