.Sound world
.
of Radivojević’s music
.
participates in a
quasi-baroque formal
.
.
construction, where
.
.
the carnal pleasure
.
.
.
is
.
.
.
(re)discovered,
.
.
.
the ideals of purity are
.
.
.
.
.
REJECTED.
.
.
.
.
.
Liberated from the fear of
.
.
.
materiality
and of the corporality,
this music is engaged in
.
.
playful artifice
.
in which
.
.
MASKS seem
to be more truthful
than
.
the faces they HIDE.
Among the main aesthetic
concepts
Radivojevic
is concerned
with
are instability,
transformation,
abundance of
activity, fluidity, violence
and continuous tension
…of human condition
