Study No. 4is the result of a software transformation of Bach’s Cello Suite No. 4, in E-flat major. A sound recording of the selected motives and sections from each movement of the suite was manipulated in such a way as to render the resulting material reminiscent of slow, ambiance, and colouristic music, such as that of William Basinski, Pauline Oliveros, and Brian Eno. This kind of transformed Bach then became the basis for the viola part, which spontaneously arose from the selected motivic content, using it in a free, improvisatory, and hetero-phonic manner. Study No. 4 was written on the initiative of the violist Saša Mirković.
