Akos Nagy - In dem Nebel 2nd version

by Nagy - fixed electronics

/

about

My greatest music experience in 2016 was when I did my usual 10 km's running in the evening in Rijeka and I heard an amazing polyphonic honking fog horn choir.

Their major-third had a faintly flashing turquoise greenish-purple colour and vertiginous pallor. Of course they didn’t try to follow any temperation (for example: just intonation), I was totally impressed even though. So much that when we arrived home to Budapest with my family I immediately started to rewrite my half done piece, In dem Nebel from the beginning and I enhanced its originally 8 minutes length to double.

The fog horn here had a trumpet-horn-trombone choir sounding which is moving in a synthetic system and ends up in a kind of tonal blur. I wrote the “fog horn” melody with Püthagoras fifth emphasizing the comma. In this case the four fifth which are build on one another results a lower major third. The fifth sound in the range (C-G-D-A-E) will always be higher than the perfect major third which are built on the first tone. I made the melody using these so called synthonic comma.
