parallelinterpretation

Occasions for digital interpretation experiments:

A couple of my projects are trying to respond to open questions from the interpretation tradition of classical music with the currently available instruments. Beside the comparison of different traditional instruments for the same score ("Parallel Interpretation"), there are also some possibilities to explore the original, sometimes perhaps today otherwise scarcely available demanded or possible instrument ("Experimental Instrumentation") or especially when the common interpretation tradition has developed its own clischee of a certain composition simply to follow consequently the interpretation advises in a given score ("Consequent Scorereading"):
