Becoming a Sound Poet. Paul Dutton’s Poetry in Performance

Salvatore Marano (Università di Catania)

Abstract

Poeta e musicista di formazione jazz e blues, membro dei Four Horsemen e di CCMC di Michael Snow, performer vocale per R. Murray Schafer, nel suo lavoro di sound poet Dutton mette in scena l’identità scissa, plurale, del soggetto canadese. Nei testi per solo performance, costruisce la sua poesia sonora negli spazi interstiziali fra musica, linguistica e semantizzazione della voce, e mette alla prova i limiti del sistema fonatorio fra click, diplo- e triplofonie, versi animali, silenzio.
