Nicola Sani AchaB

Nicola Sani’s cycle of three compositions entitled AchaB, for clarinets, 8 channel digital sound and video, take their initial starting point from Bach. Sani then proceeds to create complex sound-worlds based on clarinettist Gareth Davis’ approach to sonority, instrumental timbre, and breath, augmenting them with spatial amplification and displacement. A progressive expansion of sound and a deepening of sonorous possibilities develop as the three pieces unfold which is also echoed in David Ryan’s video component producing both a convergent and discontinuous counterpoint to the music.
