dc.description.abstractSubmarinul Iertat (Forgiven Submarine) is an original music composition for large symphony orchestra. The work is inspired by and written in collaboration with two Romanian authors, Ruxandra Ceseraneu and Andrei Codrescu. The title stems from the opening line in a collaborative poem by Ceseraneu and Codrescu. Like the poem, the orchestral work tries to synthesize elements of eastern European surrealism, magical realism, mid-sixties American avant-garde and “beat” generation aesthetics. The musical work opens in a “sea” of spectral sound and overtone harmonies that depict the bizarre and hallucinatory tableaus of the poetry. This large densely textured music gives way to a strange “love-song” of sorts – representing the work’s coy seduction embodied in the collaborative poem. The final portion of the piece represents the characters succumbing to their own delirium and frenetic energy – the ethereal, unique trance state that is central to Ceseraneu’s poetics.
