about
HELGE SUNDE’s Antageligvis Therese??? is a humorous deconstruction and fragmentation of Beethoven’s Für Elise.
Under the title, which means “Presumably Therese???”, Sunde
writes the following: “On 27 April 1810 Ludwig van Beethoven wrote a little piano piece that he scribbled a girl’s name on. It might look like ‘Für Elise’, but his handwriting was as unclear as his hearing, and presumably it actually said ‘Therese’. (…)
Inspired by this small mistake, I have put bits of this work into a
computer program that reshuffles the notes and places the notes
of good old ‘Ludo’s’ piano piece in a new order.” Such a “remix”
of familiar classical music will doubtless serve as a compositional
technique that will, especially with the aid of computer technology, generate exciting music within every possible genre, as it is already doing.
