Program Notes:
Mysterious Pond was composed during my artist residency at the MacDowell Colony in New Hampshire, USA.
From my studio, nestled amidst the forest, I could hear distant sounds emanating from the nearby pond: Frog peepers created a haunting sound texture, accompanied by the calls of nocturnal birds and distant howls. My mind started to imagine the pond and its mysterious atmosphere at different times of the day, especially from dusk to sunrise. I envisioned small episodes involving the water creatures, their sounds, the play of light, the rustle of the leaves, and the whisper of the water. All of these elements created a continuum of musical scenes, woven one into the other.
Mysterious Pond was written for flutist Eyal Ein Habar and oboist Dudu Carmel. It was commissioned by the “Sons et Couleurs au Musée” concert series (Er’ella Talmi, Director) with funds from the Canada-Israel Cultural Foundation.
