The Idea for this sketchbook emerged the topic “vocal counterpoint” that I have explored in my technical portfolio earlier this year. In a way, it is a straight continuation of those pieces, one of which is a conversation I composed in both Hebrew and English. This led me to wonder what the musical equivalent of this might be.
There are two areas that I wish to explore regarding this:
A “bilingual” conversation – How nonmusical speech and instrumental music can interact. Each representing and occurring within their own language; and a “bilingual clash” -

Which mainly explores bi tonality and different purely musical languages work when they are place alongside each other.

This is an assiment I made for my orchestration Medium class where we were ask to create and arrange a variation to Schoenberg piano pieces.
Looking back on this, I realised this was a seed to my final Runswick piece.
In this piece I layered different fragments from Schoenberg piano piece on top on each other and placed them is different instruments. This technique will form the basis to my Runswick piece "In A Bilingual Mind".

I have shared my Runswick piece in my group session yesterday. We have discussed the difficulty to put different sections together and how to justify their coexistence.
I have been thinking about it a lot and I don't think you can justify that all the time. I am in a point in my life where a lot of contradicting things happen at the same time. You can miss someone and not want to see them. You can be angry at a situation and be happy it happened to you. You can speak 2 languages and feel fluent in both even though they share nothing in common. You can have extreme wealth next to extreme poverty in one city.
I used to be afraid of those contradictories but I want to embrace them(not the last one but it was an example). I want my differences to coexist simultansly and explore how that might feel musically. I think this is the core idea I want to explore in this sketchbook.
