Porto / Lisboa: s.n., 1983-1984. 3 ff.: il.; 300×210 mm. A set of three musical scores by Telectu, a Portuguese experimental and minimalist music duo founded in 1982 by Jorge Lima Barreto (Lisbon, 1949 - 2011) and Vítor Rua (Porto, 1956), two of the most influential musicians of the Portuguese avant-garde of the 1980s. The scores relate to the albums Belzebu (LP, Cliché, 1983) and Off Off (2xLP, 3 Macacos, 1984), the two records that consolidated the duo's international reputation. The sheets constitute exceptional working documents: they combine conventional musical notation, technical diagrams of electronic equipment - analog synthesizer, Roland TR-606 Drumatix, Roland GR-300 Polyphonic Guitar Synthesizer -, graphic notation invented by the duo, and handwritten notes in Portuguese and English. The first sheet documents the composition ”Sator, ” a track by Belzebu whose titles—Rotas, Opera, Tenet, Arepo, Sator—form the famous Latin magic square, the oldest known two-dimensional palindrome, which Jorge Lima Barreto transformed into a musical structure. The second sheet documents ”Behemoth” by Off Off , with guitar tablature and Roland GR-300 sound synthesis diagrams. The third presents a graphic score of Belzebu with original notation, ABA ternary structure, and improvisation indications (”β: ad lib use”). Archival documents of paramount importance to the history of Portuguese experimental music. Very rare. ⚑ Auto-translated via Google Translate
