A few reflections and a personal / private homage to Tom Johnson (1939-2024), that took the form of a 'counting' score in the spirit of some of his 'counting' works. This one based on the generation of numbers that count themselves, like 3 122 331 418. For 2 saxophones.

Every sudoku solution (suso) is a superposition of nine disjoint permutation matrices of order nine. These are its nine colors, or, for me as a sudokist, its nine voices.
And yes, of course, you can dissect it accordingly.

March 25th, Huijun Yi, Shih-wen Lee & I met up with MC JJ Duerinckx & Jean-Michel Van Schouwburg in the Ateliers Claus in Brussels.

On March 26th, during the 54th OMFI performance at the Grand Hospice in Brussels with Huijun Yi (voice, guzheng) & Shih-wen Lee (double bass), I found myself telling the story of my mother's Xmas-trees.

Lower the volume to a whisper when you listen to ‘Rites,’ the second of two pieces that traverse the 362,880 possible colorations of a single Sudoku solution, whose 9 x 9 digits provide the patterns for four contrapuntal rhythmic ‘voices,’ sung by the droplet-like ticking sounds of four triangles.

In my « APPLAUS! », the 362,880 distinct colorations of a sudoku solution provide the serreal patterns for four up-tempo contrapuntal rhythmic 'voices,’ performed by four persons clapping their hands.
