…sicut aurora procedit (2015)

…sicut aurora procedit is the composition created by Maija Hynninen for a multidisciplinary work Pix grace – Rosin. The work was conceived by violinist Mirka Malmi, composer Maija Hynninen and aerialist Ilona Jäntti during 2013–15. Interaction between the group members was tight, each producing demo material for the rest of the group to see and discuss. The name Rosin came from the idea of rosin combining the two, violinist and aerialist. By friction rosin creates a contact surface between the bow and strings, the hands of the aerialist and the trapeze. Composition ...sicut aurora procedit for violin, aerialist and electronics (2015) contains rosin in the form of different types of dusts that flow in various textures in the music. The multiple qualities of the dust present themselves in different lights.
