Composer Christina Viola Oorebeek delves into the fascinating process behind her unique approach to music, where she explores the intricate relationship between sound and texture. She explains how visual stimuli, such as patterns in textiles, influence her compositions, leading to layered and repetitive structures in her works. Oorebeek’s creative process is rooted in an exploration of materiality, whether sonic or visual, and how these elements can translate into powerful emotional experiences. She also discusses her recent projects, including her piano and clarinet piece Book of Samples, and the concept of interweaving different art forms to create a holistic musical experience.
