Harpist Floraleda Sacchi excels with Peter Machajdík's hypnotic composition Nell'autunno del suo abbraccio insonne as well as with works by John Cage, Arvo Pärt, Philip Glass, Michael Nyman, György Ligeti, Henry Cowell, Lou Harrison, and Nicola Campogrande on a powerful disc from DECCA.
Sacchi has a convincing way with these varied works, giving each their due in terms of tonal color and rhythmic emphasis, while suggesting implicit similarities. This is a seductive, rather than flamboyant, recital that offers surprising, albeit subtle, rewards to the open-minded listener. Art Lange, Fanfare |

Peter Machajdík's 27 minute ON THE SEVEN COLOURS OF LIGHT and works by Patricia Van Ness, Thomas Åberg, Jim Dalton, Tim Rozema, Al Benner, and Harold Stover. The US American organist Carson Cooman has selected compositions for this recording that are unified by their debt to early music (most especially its modality) as well as an economy of means in their construction. All are built from simple musical materials, elaborated and developed by their composers to create compositions that inhabit musical spaces of an often spiritual character.

Machajdik's music for a video project of Turkish visual artist Gülsün Karamustafa.
Presented at the Historisches Museum, Kestner Museum in Hannover, Germany, 2000. ‘Personal Time Quartet’ (2000) presents four channels of ever-repeating motion and was shot in Karamustafa’s own apartment. A video screen placed in four different rooms shows a young girl engaged in various domestic activities. One screen shows her painting and repainting her nails, another one shows her folding laundry, a third one shows her jumping a rope and yet another presents the girl opening and closing cupboards. Though it was intended as a portrait of the artist’s personal biography as it intersects with the history of her country, the work is recontextualised in this exhibition as representative of our own isolation, the repeating motions echo the rhythm of our sheltered life indoors. |
