While both détaché and martelé bowing techniques involve separate bow strokes for each note, détaché is characterized by a smooth, slightly separated sound with no emphasis or accent, while martelé features a strong, percussive accent on the beginning of each note. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Détaché: Means "detached" in French, but in bowing, it refers to a smooth, separate sound, not a disconnected one. Each note is played with a separate bow stroke, but the notes are not disconnected; the bowing should be smooth and even. There are no accents or emphases on any notes. Often described as "broad but separate". If no slurs or accents are present in the score, that often indicates détaché technique. Martelé: Means "hammered" in French, and refers to a technique where each note is played with a separate bow stroke, but with a strong accent at the beginning of each note, creating a percussive sound. The strokes are long with a strong accent at the ...

Published in: Audio Aesthetica Quarterly (2024) Interviewer: Your sound world feels both futuristic and deeply human. How do you balance those two extremes? iServalan: I never see them as opposites. A string under tension is mechanical, but when you bow it, it becomes emotional. Technology is the same — it’s neutral until intention transforms it. Interviewer: There’s a distinctive calm to your studio imagery — is silence an essential part of your process? iServalan: Absolutely. Silence is the precondition for any sound that matters. I prepare silence like others prepare a stage. Interviewer: Your music is often described as cinematic. Do you think visually when composing? iServalan: Always. I think in frames, not bars. Sound should move like light. Interviewer: What’s next for you? iServalan: Expansion — not in scale, but in depth. The next works will be quieter, but they’ll reach further.

🎧 Inside the Sonic World of iServalan Published in: The Digital Sound Review (2023) Beneath the minimalist aesthetic and poise of iServalan lies a world of extraordinary sonic precision. A classically trained musician turned digital experimentalist, she occupies a space few artists can claim — between the elegance of orchestral performance and the raw voltage of machine sound. Her studio is more sanctuary than workspace. Every cable, bow, and waveform is part of a deliberate ritual — one that fuses emotion with engineering. iServalan doesn’t simply compose; she constructs immersive sound environments that demand presence. “Music, for me, isn’t entertainment,” she explains. “It’s an architecture of feeling. I want the listener to inhabit the frequency — to be inside it, not observing it.” Listeners describe her compositions as hauntingly precise , moving between the mechanical and the sacred. It’s this tension — human vulnerability within digital control — that defines iServalan’s so...
