Resumo

This research is organized in two parts: A – Artistic production and B – Paper. The first part presents the programs and the program notes of the concerts held on August 23, 2013 and April 25, 2014. The second part presents the paper, which aims to study the use of multiple percussion in Iannis Xenakis solo and mixed chamber music, identifying and discussing performance characteristics of this set of works as well as idiosyncratic elements of percussion written by this composer. The paper begins with the concept of multiple percussion, historically situates the percussion in Western classical music during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and underscores the importance of Iannis Xenakis as a composer for this new lineage of percussion. The paper also proposes an approach to the works in which there is one percussionist playing multiple percussion set-ups, in solo or mixed chamber music context. Thus, the selected works are: Psappha (1975), Dmaathen (1976), Komboï (1981), Kassandra (1987), Oophaa (1989), Rebonds (1987/89) and Plektó (1993). After delimiting the repertoire to be studied, this paper identifies and discusses four characteristics of the works: (1) instrumentation, (2) the use of polyrhythms, (3) issues relating to the impossibilities in Xenakis’ music and (4) the use of polyphonic textures. The discussion section suggests traits that characterize the composer’s writing, identifying elements of recurrent use in various works, developing benchmarks, proposing technical solutions and developing interpretive conceptions that seek to contribute in the preparation of the performance of this set of works.
