- chuchotage /chu · cho · taj / (French “whisper”) n. the instantaneous interpretation of language or speech by whisper whisper / ˈhwɪspər / v. to speak very softly, especially without the resonance produced by vocalization typically to be discrete n. a soft voiceless utterance often used paralinguistically to signal secrecy and confidentiality a nearly silent tremor or ambient rustling sound This composition was conceived of as the constant transformation, reinterpretation and recontextualization of its material. The musical spirit embodied as both tension and release, understanding and nonunderstanding. As a voice attempting to be translated in real time, but only realized as a whisper.
