A sounding event, like a textural gesture to which almost every instrument in the orchestra contributes, is perceived as a single sound. Through a kind of anagoge, reduction, a complex multi-player sounding event is abstracted into a single sound which is far removed from the "musical note". The whole event becomes an abstract shape; an abstract sound construction with its own tensions and functions that could not be fully realized with traditional conceptual tools. This construction is processed, analysed, transformed and developed, in time, frequency, spectrum, space and amplitude.
The work’s gradual evolution takes the listener on a journey where time is suspended, squeezed, stretched, and even stopped. In Feedback variouslevelsoftextures, figures, gestures and climaxes come together to create a musical interest and meaning as they undergo developing variations or transformations in the course of the piece.
