NÔÉMA (1999) for violoncello and small ensemble   - "Nôéma" (greek) means object of thought, matter of thought or the content of a thought - The metamorphosis from fragile, long Ð static Ð sounds to short sharp structures - The "unsharpness" between event _ impulse Ð and the course of time, i.e. the determining of one parameter allowes the indetermining of the other - These starting points will be used in an abstract way and appears in several structures of both sound and form       - Starting at a certain idea of "aleatory", the characteristic of which doesn't appear as a complete indeterminedness but as a restriction of the degrees of liberty, various aleatorical models/ structures have been developed to describe qualitatively the characteristics of the timbres - The macroform (-structure) is of an asymmetrical charater/ type             An integral part of the composition process lay in the transformation of the "unsharpness" into musical structures as well as the focus on a aesthetic conception Ð of timbres - depending on various perspectives.
