This album is not just an homage -- it's a gentle act of remembrance. A way of tuning in to what Alvin Lucier showed the world: that listening is an art in itself. A meditation on resonance, memory, and the quiet power of pure sound. The influence of Alvin Lucier's work on acoustic phenomena and the interplay between sound and space is difficult to overstate. His legacy continues to echo through the work of countless composers and sound artists today. Lucier's music is marked by a sense of childlike wonder and sonic simplicity -- shifting perception from what people hear to how they listen. At the heart of his compositions lies the sine wave: the purest, most elemental form of sound. Clarinetist Dries Tack pays tribute to this master of minimalism with an album centered around two works Lucier composed as intimate "In Memoriams" for friends. Both pieces explore a single, elegant idea: the interaction between an instrumental tone and a sine wave. Out of that interaction, "beatings" emerge -- a pulsating rhythm that accelerates or decelerates as the waves draw nearer or drift apart. Though built on the same concept, the two works are like mirrored reflections of one another: "In Memoriam Jon Higgins," the sine wave glides in a slow glissando while the clarinet holds steady tones. "In Memoriam Stuart Marshall," it's the clarinet that dances around a fixed sine wave. Dries Tack is a clarinetist specializing in contemporary performance practices. He performs with ensembles such as Nadar Ensemble, Curious Chamber Players, and Ensemble Fractales. As co-artistic director of the GLoW Collective, he explores collaborative practices across artistic disciplines in the broadest sense. In addition to his ensemble work, Dries curates solo projects that offer fresh perspectives on existing repertoire or give rise to entirely new works at the intersection of composition and improvisation.
