“Every promise of the soul has innumerable fulfilments.“ Emerson attributes
for speaker and two-channel digital audio, by Volker Straebel

Gerhard Schultz, speaker

In five sections, Emerson attributes presents, in alternating fashion, the adjectives and nouns from an essay by Ralph Waldo Emerson. The piece alternates between live performance and recordings made on the streets of New York of around sixty different voices. The single words are isolated and spread out in time, providing space for the listener’s imagination.

Recordings by David Barron and Volker Straebel.

Duration ca. 36 minutes.
