Overheating

 Miroslav Srnka seeks to reflect musically on a physical process.  To mark the occasion of the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s 100th season, Miroslav Srnka has been commissioned to write an ensemble work for the experimental concert series “Green Umbrella”. “Overheating” (World premiere 13.11.2018 Los Angeles Philharmonic, Leitung: Susanna Mälkki) takes as its starting point a consideration of anniversaries in general. 

The musical concept of “Overheating” is based on dynamic processes: sound objects which emerge from nothing are combined, culminate and ultimately transform themselves. Srnka develops a kind of kinetik sonorous objects. The transformation of material in “Overheating” is a powerful musical process and at the same time a characteristic of time – as it elapses after the anniversary for which this composition was written. – (photo: Vojtech Havlík)
