ALEA by Polina Ovchinnikova

Published April 24, 2024

ALEA was made by Polina Ovchinnikova as a student project at HSE Art and Design School. The project addresses the so-called aleatoric music (also aleatory music), a technique used by some composers of the 20th and 21st centuries. In aleatory pieces, some elements of the musical score – notes, pauses, tempo – are left to chance, changing in the process of composition as well as during the performance.

The book’s headers, subheaders, and page headers use Rene by Fedor Abroskin, now available from tomorrow’s storefront; body text is typeset in Bitum designed by Gayaneh Bagdasaryan and Vyacheslav Kirilenko.
