Spatial-Musical Composition (1968) documentation of sound installation by Teresa Klem, Zygmunt Krauze, and Henryk Morel.

I

ON RECORDING "SPATIAL-MUSICAL COMPOSITION":

Space or rather sound spaces gathered together as "Spatial-Musical Composition" were approached by me as sightseer. I was moving through a multi-dimensional acoustic construction with a microphone creating a phonographic record of my hike including rambling. What I did then was my own composition, just like any other wanderer in the very same space. The only difference is that mine was recorded and I think of it as my private recording performance.

While performing it, I started wondering about transformation of traditional - concert or recorded - music into a space to dwell and sightsee, sound installation or acoustic architecture; transformation of orchestra / ensemble music located on stage in front of the audience (resulting in a stereo system) into music to sightsee. And in the case of this particular recording, double transformation. Authors of the Composition made the idea of an ensemble / concert spatial - turned it into a complex acoustic configuration to dwell in. Me on the other hand, by using a microphone brought the complex acoustic configuration back to its stereo set up. The recording sounds like a regular concert. Some musicians do solos while others remain in the back. But that also means that the installation by Krauze, Klem and Morel gives a listener a chance to decide who is supposed to do solo in the given moment. It is private dramaturgy of the listener - appearing as wander through specially designed space delimiting the possibilities of a hike.
