Rumsch, Philipp -ensemble

Reflections

On reflections, Philipp Rumsch explores the reduction of sound and its alteration through compositional parameters, the use and gradual overlaying of repetitive structures of rhythms like patterns or grooves. These rhythms are used as a narrative concept and as an alternative way of arranging time structures, like breathing cycles in contrast to clear metric grids. Starting from the idea of translating the sound language of Ambient, Minimal Music and Pop in an abstract way into an orchestral format, Philipp Rumsch formed an ensemble in autumn 2015, in order to explore this kind of music with a compositional-conceptual approach, while integrating the idea of improvisation at the same time. Thereby Rumsch not only refers to a tonal language, which is characterised by reduction and cold simplicity, but integrates also his preference for compositional-conceptual and improvisational approaches of contemporary music by getting closer to a popular music context. Besides his own compositions, there is also ,At Your Enemies" by John Frusciante and Josh Klinghoffer, which is part of the suite and constitutes its dramaturgical junction.
