Included within Composition 2020.13 (Edgar Varèse) are samples of two orchestral chords from Edgar Varèse’s composition Déserts. These chords are repeated against a backdrop of sinewave-based sounds that fade in and out of each other - and a continuous tone pitched at C1.
According to Varèse the title of his composition regards, ‘not only physical deserts of sand, sea, mountains, snow, outer space and deserted city streets - but also distant inner space - where man is alone in a world of mystery and essential solitude.’
