Joris Rühl — Feuilles (Umlaut)

Photo by Eric Sneed

French clarinetist Joris Rühl has worked in a variety of composed and improvised contexts with musicians like Michel Donéda, Xavier Charles, Ninh Lê Quan, Eve Risser, Axel Dörner and as a member of Orchestra Onceim. But by my count, Feuilles (leaves in French) is the first release centered around his compositions. Over the course of 50 minutes a group of like-minded musicians including the composer on clarinet, clarinetist Xavier Charles, Jonas Kocher on accordion and Toma Gouband on percussion navigate their way through the patiently modulating open-form composition. Rühl’s orchestration maximizes the full range of microtonalities, rich overtones and burred timbres of paired clarinets, Kocher’s command of the accordion’s reedy shimmers and half-stopped wheezes, and Gouband’s expansive, delicate palette of drums, percussion and abraded surfaces activated with mallets, stones, branches and other found materials.

The release is accompanied by four video excerpts from the recording session, revealing some of the strategies employed. The two clarinetists sit across from each other enveloping the exacting textures and timbres of Gouband’s gestural activities and Kocher’s hushed, organ-like harmonics and open-bellows hisses groans and gusts. Watching Gouband as he thoughtfully chooses from his table of drum sticks, leafy branches, array of smooth and coarsely textured stones to activate bells, tuned bowls, cymbals and a large floor tom and transverse bass drum is transfixing. These clips provide an intimate sense of the balance of form and freedom as the four traverse Rühl’s score.

But on to the recording itself. The piece begins with hushed harmonics colored by the micro abrasions of rubbed stones and the resonant sounding of a beaten drum. The four patiently let the sound accrue over the course of the first eight minutes of the piece, letting densities subtly ebb and flow. The introduction of pattering percussion and the gently welling of accordion chords signals a shift toward a more active section of the piece as dynamics build. Skirling clarinets pierce the calm like oscillating sine tones, morphing into buzzing overtones and whistling harmonics that settle in to lower registers buoyed by low end accordion. And then things break into counterpoint honking clarinet lines cascading against thundering drum resonances. The piece progresses with a section of atonal hocketed lines transitioning to sputtered percussive reed pops, key clicks and metallic crumples resolving into long tones that quaver against each other. Here, hints of tonality provide an effective contrast to what has proceeded. As the piece moves toward its final section, densities gather around the lower registers of the instruments and the pacing slows to mirror the hushed opening moments of the piece. Rühl’s compositional form and the masterful reading by the members of the group weaves all of these morphing elements into an engulfing variegated whole.
