MORPHEM IV

Morphem IV is also called Chaplin, as Alice Orpheus’s has watched The dictator countless times and chose a long time ago that Brahms piano sonatas where the best music ever written to sync on Chaplin’s movies. Nevertheless, like everyone, Alice has been moved by the poetic clumsiness of Chaplin’s characters. With Morphem it is that poetry and this sense of movement that Alice means to compose.

Musically, it is by studying Olivier Messiaen piano pieces that Alice has looked for ways to challenge harmonic motives by rhythmical phrases.
