Work introduction
PostScriptio is a Concerto for Violin and Chamber Orchestra in just one movement and was based on two works, which preceded it: Scriptio for Violin Solo, and TransScriptio for Violin and Live-electronics, both written in 2013. Small changes and adaptations were given here if we consider the original Scriptio writing, some of them necessary for the coordination of the ensemble, and many procedures of the electronics in real time of TransScriptio are here “transcribed” for the universe of the instrumental writing, such as the spatial behavior of sounds, the multiplicative factors for certain intervallic aggregates, freezing of pitches, delays and pre-delays of certain figures.
