Visions
for carillon
For some time now, I have been interested in the phenomenon of hallucinations – products of our imagination that are usually symptomatic of disorders of various kinds. But that is not the only cause of hallucinations. Individuals of a certain sensitivity, such as artists, may experience visions when encountering something out of the ordinary. And that is precisely what occurred with Visions for carillon.
My first contact with this instrument came in March 2022, in the tower of the Main Town Hall in Gdańsk. The instrument’s unusual location, as well as the remarkable space through which its music resounds, aroused my imagination in such a way as to trigger visions or hallucinations in sound, which in turn inspired the work presented here.
