When we muster up the courage to face difficulties, the truth is that there are far more problems than solutions. The work aims to describe the world, which is immeasurable and unfathomable. Enigma is divided into 4 sections. The first section, ‘Mysterious’ uses various uneven rhythms and dissonant intervals to explore the unique sounds for percussion quartet, such as playing on the edge of the bar with mallet handles. The music outlines the impact of matters going against people’s wishes, bringing out that when faced with unresolved turmoil, people feel troubled and helpless. The second section, ‘Trap’ utilizes the alternation of percussion instruments, accompanied by scattered rhythms, depicts the perplexity when people facing with difficulties. ‘Lost’ uses free tempo (senza misura) and diverse timbral changes (for example, the sound of superball for bass drum, tam-tam, snare drum, and the sound of a coin to scraping a cymbal) to illustrate the helplessness of people in obstacles. The last section, ‘Energetic’, the unison aims to describe that people can face the hurdles in front of them with optimism. Back

  • Heteroskedasticity II | HKCG 香港作曲家聯會

    《異質變異數 II》 Heteroskedasticity II 區顥曦 Au Ho-hei 區顥曦目前正在香港大學攻讀作曲哲學碩士學位,師從陳慶恩教授。區氏曾與多個藝團合作。最近,他的管弦合唱作品《聽!那午夜的鐘聲在迴蕩》於2024年3月由香港管弦樂團首演。 除作曲外,區氏亦活躍於指揮領域,演出自己的作品。他曾指揮香港大學管弦樂團首演他的《金氏變奏曲》,以及指揮聯校大學樂團演出西貝流士《芬蘭頌》。去年,他亦指揮香港管弦樂團圓號小組,首演他的《戀人們與星辰的愛》。 Anthony Au Ho-hei is currently an MPhil (Composition) candidate at the University of Hong Kong (HKU), under the tutelage of Professor Chan Hing-yan. Previously, Au attained a Bachelor of Finance with First Class Honours from HKU in 2022, consistently earning a place on the Dean’s Honours List each year. Au has worked closely with various art groups, including the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, Hong Kong New Music Ensemble, Hong Kong University Philharmonic Orchestra, and HKU MUSE. Au is also engaged in conducting, often premiering his own works. In 2019, he led the premiere of his Korean Variations with the Hong Kong University Philharmonic Orchestra. In 2021, he conducted the Joint University Orchestra to bring Sibelius’ Finlandia. In 2023, he conducted the horn section of the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra in the premiere of his chamber work, Lovers and the Love of the Stars. Recently, in March 2024, Au’s orchestral-choral composition Hark! The Midnight Bell Echoes was premiered by the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, Hong Kong Philharmonic Chorus, and HKU Chamber Singers, under the baton of Chloé Dufresne, with soprano Kenix Tsang serving as the reciter. 此曲旨在呈現,藝術是現實中隨機過程的節錄和再現。世界是由成千上萬的隨機過程交織而成,而音樂和隨機過程亦驚人地相似。音樂與股票價格或經濟指標一樣,可以被分析為時間序列或縱橫資料。它們會隨著時間推移而演變,在宏觀層面上展現出隨機行為,同時亦受最近的表現影響。 藝術和音樂不是隨機過程,而是我們在隨機過程中捕捉、節錄並再現的部分。相比起建造,藝術創作可能更接近是個減除的過程,在大千世界中挑選有趣的時刻,並加以雕琢和演繹。 Heteroskedasticity II is a musical embodiment of the concept that art is a reinterpretation of real-world stochastic processes. Our world is a complex tapestry of stochastic processes, evident in our societies and individual lives. The unpredictability of daily life manifest as randomness; events often unfold by chance and without a predictable pattern. Every aspect of life, from the trajectory of our careers to our marital plans, is essentially a stochastic process. While we can observe and estimate broad trends and macro patterns, precise predictions elude us due to this inherent randomness. Music exhibits striking similarities to stochastic processes. A musical composition, akin to fluctuations in stock prices or changes in macroeconomic indicators, can be analyzed as a time series or panel data. These phenomena evolve over time, displaying stochastic behaviors at a macro level while maintaining a dependency on their recent past. Their visual representations also bear resemblances. Art, including music, can be viewed as our attempt to capture and reproduce parts of these stochastic processes that resonate with us. The genesis of art might better be understood as a process of subtraction, of selecting and reproducing moments of interest from the vast stochastic process of the existing world, rather than as an act of pure creation.
