Anakoluth, Mark Polscher couples the strangeness of the electronic world of sound with the familiarity of natural and human sounds, manufacturing and civilization noises, as well as the sounds of various materials, everyday objects, and traditional musical instruments. In that he processes recordings of concrete sounds, sometimes beyond all recognition, and creates pure electronic sounds out of them, he forms all possible transitions between extreme alienation and natural reproduction. In this field of tension of “concrete” sonorities and “abstract” everyday sounds, the electronic sounds neutralize the known context of the concrete events, and vice versa: the natural material sometimes auratically and associatively charges the electronic sounds to such an extent that they too begin to speak. The anacoluthic formal principle in Polscher’s sound and aural story is based on the fact that at different phases in his life every human being moves in changing social, cultural, and musical contexts. For this reason, Anakoluth becomes a mirror and barometer of public opinion of audible life at the beginning of the twenty-first century. (Rainer Nonnenmann on Deutschlandfunk/Kultur)With Anakoluth, Mark Polscher (*1961) presents his fourth album on marc aurel edition. With the present 105-minute work on two CDs, the composer and producer of electro-acoustic works with predominantly scenic performance practice and over seventy theater and film scores has published his hitherto most extensive electronic composition. Polscher’s “glorious efflorescence of sounds” (The Wire) experiences in Anakoluth a new high point in terms of tonal density and polyphony.
