about

For Us/Para Nós

Wilhelm Matthies and Paulo Chagas made exchanges of musical files to celebrate their friendship and some of their latest musical interests (end of December 2022 and January 2023).

We created our files and sent them to each other via internet.
It was so much fun to make work to make parts just for Paulo
and then to hear how he responded.
Then,
Paul initiated his four pieces and it was a joy to respond to them and mix them as well.

I (Wilhelm) played the string parts with an instrument that I invented and am developing.
The instrument features movable resonators which allow for open string plucking and varied resonant responses from the strings, other than bowing at almost anywhere along the length of each string. The instrument is set up to be tuned as needed, ie., in a non-standard way and specific to each piece or a set of pieces.
The sounds are picked up by Realist piezo pick ups, Earthworks and DPA microphones
and filtered with Logic Pro X software.

Paulo plays wind instruments in this album.
Bamboo flute, Fujara, Bass Clarinet and Alto Sax

I mixed the pieces and Paulo shared his advice.
I made the photo and the graphics for the album icon.
