“THE METAPHYSICS BEHIND THE MUSIC” – ADRIAAN VALK

tension in silence / tension in movement

Silence and the invisible, where words lose their meaning,
where sound is put into service of the ineffable
and where eternity radiates … my true nature.

ADRIAAN VALK: COMPOSER, SAXOPHONIST AND CLARINETTIST

Adriaan Valk, a man with an equally playful and contemplative attitude. You can hear that in his music. Characteristic for Adriaan is also that he does not consider his compositions as ‘own performances’; he only passes on what comes to him from the silence. Fixed elements of his compositions are a solid structure, strong movement and a remarkable variety. But the seemingly effortlessly achieved form arises intuitively, improvisingly. He also calls himself ‘intuitive composer’. That sounds rather abstract. And yet, or perhaps because of this, his music is actually used specifically in dance, film and theater. The crossover with other cultures and art disciplines is therefore an essential element in Adriaan’s career.
