ELNAZ SEYEDI (Germany)
English transcript of the video interview by Ruth Wiesenfeld:
:At the beginning, I thought I'd just create three miniatures: a gray part, a red part, and the last part wasn't so clear yet. It was the beginning of January 2020, then this plane crashed. That preoccupied me I couldn't compose anymore, it was a very strange situation. That's why the last landscape just turned white. There are a lot of air sounds and it should seem as if the instruments are speaking or whispering, but they just don't say anything. Accordingly the instruction in the score says speechless.
