iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Diamanda Galás does not merely interpret songs; the American artist reterritorializes them. This Saturday at Theatro Circo and Wednesday at Casa da Música,

Diamanda Galás returns after a long absence to remind us that a scream is a form of complicity. The avant-garde artist brings us wounds and bandages in the form of music. Unmissable, of course.She is capable of piercing the molecular structure of a room.

It is an experience that oscillates between reified agony and an almost unbearable spiritual clarity, in which the Portuguese audience—usually given to a passive melancholy—is suddenly injected with a rage that is, at once, both wound and remedy.

000

This is not music for relaxation; it is an existential transaction in which we pay for someone to remind us that a scream is, in fact, a form of complicity.

Pain is what remains to us; it may be the only authentic thing we have left. This was a liturgy of violence and suffering that left us wondering whether the ticket was for a concert—or for a live, real-time autopsy.

An experimental singer needs to have 400 screams at her disposal, so Mycenae-Alpha can be a compositional model. The Mycenaeans were a Greek warrior elite, their warfare and architecture so formidable as to seem built by Cyclops.

I had been working on my first vocal pieces and had already performed Wild Women with Steak-knives (the Homicidal Love Song for Solo Scream) — later appearing on The Litanies of Satan (1982). This work confirmed I was headed in the right direction.

His music is ferocious and difficult to perform — but extremely innovative. The violence in Mycenae-Alpha attracted me instantly. I realised the composer was a master warrior who used music as a flight of harpoons.

This is the first sound work Xenakis created for the Upic computerised composition tool he built to turn hand drawings into electronic music. As a Greek resistance fighter, he had half his face blown apart by shrapnel and was imprisoned many times.
