John Van der Slice

Composer · catalogue of works, concerts, recordings

A website where the music keeps playing while you read: catalogue of works, concerts on a globe of venues, recordings, writings – and a player that does not fall silent when you turn the page.

The question

How does the music stay audible while you move through works, concerts and writings – without every page change cutting the sound?

The way

The site is built around a playlist that survives every navigation. Works, recordings and concerts live in the Catalogue de ligatures and point to one another: from the work to the recording, from the recording to the concert, from the concert to the place on the globe.

Why it holds

Whoever reads keeps listening. The composer maintains the catalogue himself; a new recording or concert appears in every place it belongs.
