Performed on the occasion of the exhibition 25 years of the Mudam Collection, Verstrijken by William Engelen (b. 1964, Weert, Netherlands) refers to a method for composing music that the artist and composer has used since 2005. The sound work is based on journals that the artist transcribed as a score for a solo instrument. It is conceived as a form of self-portraiture, where the musicians perform an episode from their personal history as music.
For this iteration the artist has worked with musician
André
Pons-Valdès from the Luxembourgish instrumental ensemble United
Instruments of Lucilin, who kept a diary for seven days which was
transformed by Engelen
into a forty-four-minute violin solo score.
