Guise Jean François de
slow motions
for a small chamber ensemble
 op. 17, no. 17

This 2018 work, "slow motions for a small chamber ensemble," is primarily rhythmic in nature. Contrary to what the title suggests, the focus is not on slow-motion movements in the sounds; rather, it is on the gradually dissolving structure.
The chosen instrumentation further strengthens the progression, as all instruments are predestined to act in both directions, slow and fast.
The performance time of 6:30min is hardly noticeable, the piece flies by in no time. How Jean François de Guise manages to superimpose movement and slowness shows his compositional mastery.
Tonally and structurally, he follows his ideas from previous works without quoting himself. Analyzing the score, we find that it is the intervals used that he uses here to develop the piece further.
