Based on these letters, the German cartographer, Martin Waltseemüller, suggested that the discovered land should be named after Vespucci. This proposal was adopted and on a map of Mercator, published in 1538, we find Terra Americi or America as the name for the entire continent. The discovery of a new world is a metaphor for the theme of the composition by Jan Bosveld.
In six movements, the musical landscape of the modern musical idiom is explored. Each individual movement is written in a specific technique, style, or scale.
Inhalt:
- Part 1 is based on the whole tone scales linked to pendiatonicism.
- Part 2 is devoted to bitonality.
- Part 3 is created based on aleatory music.
- Part 4 is written in minimalism music-style.
- Part 5 contains atonal and polyrhythmic elements.
- Part 6 is based on polymetre.
Exploring all these aspects, the "new world" of the modern musical idiom will be, hopefully, more accessible.
A continent of fertility and beauty.
