| Abstract
|
:
|
<i>Sacred Voices of the Golden Horn</i> is a multi-movement work for a mixed chamber ensemble and sound files with a duration of approximately thirty minutes. The ensemble consists of flute (c, alto), clarinet (B-flat, E-flat, bass), violin, cello, percussion (vibraphone, hand drums), and piano. In this work, I explored transmutations and combinations of a variety of musical material derived from the musical traditions of several minority religious communities in Istanbul. I transformed the material into combinations of scales that would never occur in the traditional music and I used polyphonic textures and harmonies of my own invention. The shape of musical material was affected by various cultural symbols associated with these traditions.
