Hi guys!

Today I want to talk about the Spectral Music, or Spectralism.
This is a technique developed in France in 1970. This artistic movement try to generate new music by complex process like the analysis of the Timbral Charasteristic of the sound: His specter,colour, density, amplitude. the sofistication. this music, doesnt has defined melodies or rithms, The Timbre will have the attention of the auditor.

One of my favorite works of this style is "Partiels" of Gerard Grisey. This work analyze the timbral characteristic of the Trombon's sound. We can hear the trombon's harmonics by the others instruments. for this reason if you will find dificult try to recognize the rest of instruments because the mixture of Sounds is very complex.

Some important representatives of this movement are Gerard Grisey, Tristan Murail.
Whit the spetral analysis of sounds of the computer systems. They propose a new way of composition. I recomend you to hear les spaces acoustiques, Talea, Vortex Temporum by Gerard Grisey, and gondwana, territoires de l'oublie by Tristan Murail.

Gerard Grisey

I thing that this artistic movement is very friendly with the auditors. because, perharps, we hear naturals harmonies that we can hear in the wild. I want to compose like this guys!

I hope your comments friends!
