At the end of 2022 I began to compose a new version of Henry Purcell’s song „O Solitude“ as a commissioned work for the Berlin-based soprano Marine Madelin. This new musical composition consists of two parts: „O Solitude Part 1“ and „O Solitude Part 2 (Owner Of A Lonely Heart)“.
These either re-mixed or completely new composed versions of „O Solitude“ by the English baroque composer Purcell were world premiered by Marine Madelin as music for electronic playback and soprano in January 2023 at her solo concert „Solitude“ as part of the „Fractions“ festival in Bielefeld.
Over the course of the year 2023 Marine came to my Berlin studio, we made vocal recordings and I made final mixes of the two tracks „O Solitude Part 1“ and „O Solitude Part 2 (Owner of a lonely heart)“.
Later I created experimental-visual music videos, which I see as an important part of my new composition in the sense of a multimedia processing of the topic of solitude.
