Sonic Instability: A Composition Portfolio

Abstract

This dissertation represents the result of four years of study at Harvard. Before the beginning

of my doctoral research, my music was above all focused on creating layers of surfaces across which

things move, blend, and work together to hide what lies beneath. These surfaces reflect and absorb

light, and in constructing them I constantly veiled the animating energy hidden in their depths,

probably also because I was not sure of what this energy was, even if I knew what its shadow looked

like. During my Ph.D., the core of my research shifted from the outside — the creation of surfaces

— to the more direct representation of the inside.

Included in this portfolio are seven works that represent my output over the past four years.

Among these works are compositions exploring instrumentations from solo performer to string

orchestra, including both acoustic and electronic pieces. An important feature of this music is a

compositional approach in which traditional instruments and everyday objects are brought together

in order to create a sonic representation of a spatial environment. I understand space as a metaphor

for temporal experience: time unfolds linearly, but it enables you to inhabit a space whose

dimensions and properties are revealed in time.

This research also documents an increasing interest in the productive potential of unstable

sounds. My use of fragile sounds, whose quietness and sonic irregularity underline the physical

gesture made to produce them — almost as though the sound needed a visual component in order to

be fully understood — complements this approach to sonic instability. As an artist, I am drawn to

uneasiness, dirt, and imperfection. During my time at Harvard I have been able to integrate these

qualities into my music by finding a way of producing scores that direct the performers’ energies

iii
towards controlled but unpredictable results. My scores are meticulously notated, but most of my

sounds are so unstable, because of the techniques used to produce them, that the same passage

played several times would give as many sonic results. The energy and aesthetic experience remain

the same, but what changes is a question of shifts in the shade of a color. I feel that it is this breach

into imperfection that makes my sonic environments alive.

Bois et Cuivres || Winds and Brass


Waldteufel : cet instrument est joué en deux façons || this instrument is played in two ways.

Le fil en plastique doit être tendu et le mouvement circulaire || The thread has to be tight and it has to move in circle.\

Le fil doit être attaché et rayer sur la peu de l’instrument || The thread has slide on the skin of the instrument.

Appeau Gelinotte : il peut être acheté ici http://www.qbc.fr/index.php?cPath=23_21&osCsid=4cb45019efa6d2cff5c3cf7396045f26. Il doit


être joué en deux façon : mes. 97 (pour la Trompette) — souffler et couvrir/ouvrir le petit trou avec un doit (un peu comme avec la sourdine
wa-wa) ; mes. 142-157 (pour Clarinette, Cor, et Trompette) — souffler en laissant toujours le trou ouvert.
Gelinotte (grouse) Birdcall: it can be purchased here: http://www.qbc.fr/index.php?cPath=23_21&osCsid=4cb45019efa6d2cff5c3cf7396045f26. It has to be played
in two ways: bar 97 (for the trumpet player) — blow and cover/uncover the little hole with a finger (like a wa-wa mute); bars 142-157 (for clarinet, horn, and
trumpet player) — blow leaving the hole uncovered.

Préparation de la clarinette basse : couvrir le pavillon de la clarinette avec un papier en plastique très rigide — un papier A4 plastifié suffit. Il
devra être fixé avec un trombone. L’effet sonore peut être entendu ici http://heatherroche.net/2014/03/24/on-bass-clarinet-preparations/
Preparation of the bass clarinet: cover the bell of the clarinet with a stiff sheet of paper — a laminated A4 sheet is suitable — fixed with a bulldog clip.

Piano
Préparation : Mettre du scotch sur les cordes marquées || Put some tape on the indicated strings

Aimantes : (3 Néodyme Cylindriques : hauteur 60mm, diamètre 12mm) : positionner les aimants sur les cordes marquées.
Toucher légèrement la pointe des aimants et les laisser vibrer (effet trémolo).
Magnets (3 Neodymium Cylinder: 60mm height, 12mm diameter): position the magnets on the indicated strings. Lightly touch the tip of the magnets and let
vibrate (tremolo effect).

Trombones circulaires et Fil de pêche : placer les 3 trombones sur 3 cordes de 3 touches (l’un à coté de l’autre, par exemple
sol-sol#, et la) dans le registre médium, horizontalement (chaque trombone doit couvrir les 3 cordes de chaque touche), et
dans 3 positions différentes. Faire passer le fil de pêche sous ces cordes. || Circular paperclips: put the 3 paperclips on 3 strings of 3
consecutive piano keys in the medium register (e.g. G-G#-A). Place them horizontally (each paperclip has to cover the 3 strings of piano key).
Put the fishing line underneath these strings.

Billes : Avant le début de la pièce, mettre 15-20 petites billes dans le piano à la fin des cordes en direction opposée aux touches. Pousser
doucement les billes avec les mains (pas toutes ensmble) pour le faire glisser lentement sur les cordes. || Before the beginning of the piece, put 15-20
little marbles inside the piano, at the end of the strings, in the opposite direction of the piano keys. Push gently the marbles with your hands (not all together) to
allowthem to slide on the strings.

Vibrateur : Mettre un vibrateur sur les dernières deux cordes du piano dans le registre grave. Le vibrateur doit pouvoir vibrer très doucement.
Voici celui conseillé : http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GL50RI8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Vibrator: put a vibrator on the last two strings of the piano in the low register. The vibrator has to capable of very low power settings.

Harpe || Harp
Cuillères à miel : Positionner 3 cuillères entre deux cordes. La position n’est pas importante, mais la première doit être placée entre deux cordes
dans le registre médium, et la deuxième et troisième cuillère dans le registre aigu. L’effet sonore peut être entendu ici
http://sites.siba.fi/web/harpnotation/wooden-object-in-strings
Honey spoons: place 4 honey spoons between 2 strings. The pitch and the position are not important, but the first has to be places between two strings in the medium
register, and the second and third ones in the high register.

Waldteufel : Poser l’instrument sur une base en bois et toucher la peu du waldteufel avec le vibrateur (low power)
comme sur l’image. || Waldteufel: place the instrument on a flat wood base and touch the skin of the waldteufel with the vibrator
(low power).

5
Cordes || Strings

Violon 1 : Préparer les cordes 1 et 2 avec des trombones circulaire en métal (un AST et un MSP) || Prepare the strings 1 and 2 with
circular paperclips (one AST and one MSP)

Violon 2 : Préparer les cordes 2 et 3 avec des trombones circulaire en métal (un AST et un MSP) || Prepare the strings 2 and 3 with
circular paperclips (one AST and one MSP)

Pression main gauche :


Left hand pressure

Pression main droite : = presque pas de pression


Right hand pressure

Effet Radio : l’archet doit passer entre les deux doigts.


Radio Effect : the bow should pass between the two fingers, continuously vary the bow pressure. The result should
saound like radio static moving between frequencies.

Étouffer les cordes et jouer avec une vitesse d’archet très lente. Le son doit être brisé, avec des petits silences à
l’intérieur. Un grain à la fois. || Damp the strings and play with a very slow speed of the bow. The sound must be broken, with
small silences inside. One grain at a time.

Les trois lignes représentent les trois registres de l’instrument : aigu, médium, grave. Main gauche toujours demi appuyée.
The three lines represent the three registers of the instrument: high, medium, low. Left hand always half pressure.

Main gauche : demi appuyée. Main droite : col legno tratto (clt), très peu de pression, près de la main gauche, suivre les
mouvements de la main droite (gliss. vers l’aigu=MSP // vers le grave=AST)
Left hand: half pressure. Right hand: col legno tratto (clt), very little pressure, close to the left hand, follow the movements of the right hand
(gliss up = MSP // gliss down =. AST).

Pizz. Fluide : effectuer le pizzicato avec la main gauche. Après avoir pincé la corde, utiliser le bouton de l'archet et parfois le bois de l'archet.
Poussez horizontalement avec la main droite, tout comme un bottle-neck pour une guitare. Cette action donne un glissando résultant de la
division de la corde et du déplacement du bouton de l'archet.
Pizz. Fluide : perform the pizzicato with the left hand. Once you have pinched the string, use the metal button of the bow, and sometimes the wood of the bow.
Push horizontally with the right hand, like a bottle-neck for a guitar. This action gives a glissando resulting from the division of the string and moving the knob of
the bow.

AST = alto sul tasto


T = al tasto
PO = posizione ordinaria
SP = sul ponticello
MSP = molto sul ponticello
MV = molto vibrato
V = vibrato
NV = non vibrato
l.b. = legno battuto
c.l.t. = col legno tratto
1/2 = 1/2 legno

6
Amplification : tous les instruments doivent être amplifiés. Pour le piano, prévoir 3-4 dpa 4099 micros et deux micro condenser.
Amplification: all the instruments have to be amplified. Amplification for the piano: 3-4 dpa 4099 microphones and a couple of conderser microphens.

Laptop performer/Conductor:
The laptop performer (conductor, or other musicians) should have a laptop running a patch for Cycling 74’s Max software that produces sine
waves (provided by the composer) connected to a stereo pair of loudspeakers.

Numbers above the stave indicate that a change in the sine waves should be triggered by hitting the laptop’s spacebar. The cue numbers match
bar numbers, so for example the first cue of the piece is number 13, the second 25, etc.

Instruction on how to play and use the patch will be found in the package provided by the composer/publisher alongside separated parts for
the musicians, and explanatory audio files and videos.

General Notes !
₋ Accidentals apply only to those notes before which they are placed, with the exception of repeated notes.!

₋ Phrases should aways be played legatissimo, unless marked otherwise!

!
!

“Waldteufel” !

Waldteufel can be purchased at www.thomann.de or at http://suono.at/wordpress/produkt/waldteufel/. This instrument is played in two ways:!

The thread must be tight and move in circle.!

The thread should scrape against the skin of the instrument.!


!

“Gelinotte” [Grouse] Birdcall !


To be played in two ways:!

1. blow and cover/uncover the end of the instrument with one finger (like a wa-wa mute);
2. blow leaving the end uncovered.!

The “gelinotte” can be purchased here: http://www.qbc.fr/index.php?cPath=23_21&osCsid=4cb45019efa6d2cff5c3cf7396045f26!

Polystyrene on music stands (vln. I, 4–6; vln. II, 5; vla. II, 2)!
Polystyrene should be attached to the music stands so that it can be comfortably bowed.
Bow to create a consistently high pitched, continuous sound (e.g. violins b. 30ff.).!

Electric guitar strings (vln. I, 1–5; vln. II, 1–4; vla. I, 1–2; vc. 2)!
The electric guitar string should be pulled tight using a foot to hold one end against the floor and
the left hand to hold the other. The sound produced is a quiet, airy thrumming.!

It may be best to attach the guitar string to small pieces of wood at either end in order to make
pulling it tense more comfortable for the player.!

!
Tupperware on plexiglass (vln. I, 5; vln. II, 2 + 5; vla. I, 1; vla. II, 1 + 2; vc. 1)!

The plexiglass should be placed on a flat surface so that it can be scraped with one hand.!
Scraping the plexiglass with pressure will produce a very loud, distorted screeching, while
applying very little pressure should produce a very high-pitched, intermittent whistling sound.

Tupperwares: the best option would be to use the transparent lid of the plastic case of the iPhone 6S earplugs. Try different kinds in order to
find the good sound.
Plesiglass Sheet: 12’’x12’’x3/16’’ or an A4 size with a thickness of 5mm. !

Metal thimbles (vln. I, 1–5; vln. II, 1, 3 + 5; vla. I, 1 + 2)!


!
The thimbles should be placed on two fingertips of the right hand and used to perform a kind of two-
finger, irregular trill percussively tapping the string.!

50
Strings (general) !
Lefthand pressure:!

Righthand (bow) pressure:!


= almost no pressure!

= ordinary pressure!

= half overpressure!

= overpressure!

Bow position:!

AST = alto sul tasto!


T = al tasto!
PO = posizione ordinaria!
SP = sul ponticello!
MSP = molto sul ponticello
7WJCSBUP

!!
Bow techniques:!
l.b. = legno battuto!
c.l.t. = col legno tratto!

crini = hair

Special techniques:!

Damp the strings and play with a very slow speed of the bow. The sound must be broken, perforated, with small
silences inside. One grain at a time.!
!
!
!

The three lines of the stave represent the three registers of the instrument: high, medium, low.
Left hand always half pressure; right hand col legno tratto.!

!
Left hand: half pressure. Right hand: col legno tratto (clt), very little pressure, close to the left hand, follow the
movements of the left hand (glissando up = MSP // glissando down = AST).!
!
Violin & Viola Preparations !
!
Violin I, 1+2
Viola II, 1
Prepare strings I + II with two circular paperclips each (one AST and one MSP)
Paperclips have to be metal, and circular.

Violin
! I, 3
Violin II, 1
Viola II, 2
Prepare strings II + III with two circular paperclips each (one AST and one MSP)!

Violin II, 2
Prepare strings III + IV with two circular paperclips each (one AST and one MSP)!

51
Cello (2+3) !

Radio Effect: the bow should pass between the two fingers, continuously vary the bow pressure.
The result should sound like radio static moving between frequencies.!

!
!
Laptop performer/Conductor
The laptop performer (conductor, or other musicians) should have a laptop running a patch for Cycling 74’s Max software that produces sine
waves (provided by the composer) connected to a stereo pair of loudspeakers.!
Numbers above the stave (as shown left) indicate that a change in the sine waves should be triggered by hitting the
laptop’s spacebar. The cue numbers match bar numbers, so for example the first cue of the piece is number 32, the
second 43, etc.!

Instructions on how to download and use the patch will be found in the package provided by the composer/publisher alongside separated parts
for the musicians, and explanatory audio files and videos.

dead wasps in the jam-jar (iii)


for string quartet, objects, and sine waves
(2017)


88
Commissioned by the Festival d’Automne à Paris, with the support of the Ernst von Siemens Foundation
and the Proquartet Association.

World première: The Arditti Quartet, 9 October 2017, Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord, Paris, France


89
I would like to thank:

Joséphine Markovits, for her constant support and trust throughout these years.
The Arditti Quartet, for their patience and curiosity in exploring my sound world.
Jan Bernstein, for making the buzzing-bow machines.
Chris Swithinbank, for being always present.

Performance notes

- Accidentals apply only to those notes before which they are placed, with the exception of repeated notes.
- Phrases should aways be played legatissimo, unless marked otherwise

“Jay” Birdcall (violins 1-2, viola, cello)

The birdcall is played by blowing into the mouthpiece. The sonic result is like loud white noise.

The “jay” birdcall can be purchased here: http://www.qbc.fr/index.php?
cPath=23_21&osCsid=4cb45019efa6d2cff5c3cf7396045f26

Electric guitar string (viola)

The electric guitar string should be pulled using a foot to hold one end against the floor and the left hand
to hold the other. The sound produced is an airy thrumming. 

It may be best to attach the guitar string to small pieces of wood at either end in order to make pulling it
tight more comfortable for the player.

Tupperware on plexiglass (violins 1-2, viola)

• small, hard, plastic tupperware — the best option would be to use the transparent lid of the plastic case
of the iPhone 5 or 6 earplugs.
• plexiglass sheet — A4 size with a thickness of 5mm.

The plexiglass should be placed on the ground, close to the musicians’s foot of choice. The small
tupperware should be attached to the sole of the performer’s foot using velcro, and positioned over the
plexiglass sheet. Very gently, with almost no pressure of the foot, slide the tupperware on the plexiglass
sheet. The aim is to allow the sound to “speak” before closing the gesture. The exact timing of this action
doesn’t need to be precise.

Buzzing bows

The buzzing bows are motorised. They require 220V power sockets and will be activated through a hand
switch. They will be positioned around 1.5m in front of the musicians, facing the audience.

The buzzing bows have been built by Jan Bernstein and are the property of the composer. Please get in
touch with her in order to discuss their use. 

They can also be substituted by three live performers with non-motorised buzzing bows.

Preparation

Strings are prepared with up to 5 circular, metal paperclips, that should be


positioned close to the fingerboard (AST) or to the bridge (MSP), or both, as
shown in the picture.

92
Lefthand pressure:

= ordinary pressure

= half pressure

= lightly touching, as you would when playing harmonics

Righthand (bow) pressure:

Bow position and techniques:

AST = alto sul tasto


T = al tasto
PO = posizione ordinaria
SP = sul ponticello
MSP = molto sul ponticello
NV = non vibrato
V = vibrato
MV = molto vibrato
c.l.t. = col legno tratto

Radio Sev. Effect

The bow should pass between the thumb (AST, marked ‘fg. 1’ in the score) and two fingers (MSP, marked
‘fg. 2’ in the score). Variously lift either the thumb (AST) or the two fingers (MSP), while varying the
pressure of the bow continuously. The result should sound like radio static moving between frequencies.

Laptop performer/Cello

The laptop performer (cello) should have a laptop running a patch for Cycling 74’s Max software that
produces sine waves (provided by the composer). Although a Macbook Pro’s internal speakers are
powerful enough to allow the electronic sounds to blend with the string quartet, if possible, it is
recommended to connect the laptop to a stereo pair of loudspeakers.

Instructions on how to download and use the patch will be found in the package provided by the
composer/publisher alongside the parts for the musicians, and explanatory audio files and videos.

* = the small tupperware (transparent lid of the plastic case of the Iphone 5 or 6 earplugs) will be attached to the
sole of the performer's foot through velcro, and it will be positioned on a plexiglass sheet. VERY GENTLY, with
almost no pressure of the foot, slide the tupperware on the plexiglass sheet. The aim is to allow the sound to
"speak" before closing the gesture. The exact timing of this action doesn't need to be precise.

smudged — a carbon copy


for 5 singers/performers, transducers, and electronics
(2016–17)

119
120
Kompositionsauftrag von Musik der Jahrhunderte Stuttgart
World première: 2 February 2017, ECLAT Festival Neue Musik, Stuttgart, Germany
121
I would like to thank:

Christine Fischer, for giving me the opportunity to write this challenging piece;
Chris Swithinbank, for building the electronics and designing the layout diagrams. Without him this piece would have not been possible;
Seth Torres and the Harvard University Music Department for allowing me to work on the electronics in the best possible conditions;

Hans Tutschku, for a great semester and for being so kind to show his patches to my colleagues and I;
Tony Arnold, for her time recording crazy multiphonics with her voice.

Performance material

1 long table where singers 1, 2 & 3 will be seated.



2 smaller tables where singers 4 & 5 will be seated.

1 wooden table top, or a very low wooden table for the 8 transducers and tin foil.

• Singer 1 (Mezzo or Alto): Susanne



small hard plastic tupperware — the best option would be to use the transparent lid of the plastic case of the iPhone 6S earplugs.

plexiglass sheet — 12" x 12" x ³⁄16" or an A4 size with a thickness of 5mm. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

metal ratchet fixed on a piece of wood. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.


• Singer 2 (Soprano): Johanna



a block of very hard polystyrene. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

wire brush — suggested brand: http://amzn.to/2jQLi0v.


122
• Singer 3 (Mezzo or Alto): Truike

small hard plastic tupperware — the best option would be to use the transparent lid of the plastic case of the iPhone 6S earplugs.

plexiglass sheet — 12" x 12" x ³⁄16" or an A4 size with a thickness of 5mm. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

a block of very hard polystyrene. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

wire brush — suggested brand: http://amzn.to/2jQLi0v.


• Singer 4 (Tenor): Martin



small tupperware.

plexiglass sheet — 12" x 12" x ³⁄16" or an A4 size with a thickness of 5mm. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

metal ratchet fixed on a piece of wood. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

low electric guitar string with a violin/viola bow.


• Singer 5 (Bass): Andreas



small tupperware.

plexiglass sheet — 12" x 12" x ³⁄16" or an A4 size with a thickness of 5mm. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.

low electric guitar string with a violin/viola bow.

General notes for the performers

• Please visit the page: http://bit.ly/2jJP3Rq



It contains videos and audio files that will explain the following sounds:
- tupperware on plexiglas (“video-1_tupp-plex”)
- polystyrene with wire brush (“video-2_pol-wirebrush”)
- e-guitar string (“video-3_e-guitar”)
- e-guitar string audio file (“smudged_e-guit-string”)
- metal ratchet (“video-4_ratchet”)
- section F — improvisation on breath/change of pressure on the voice: the singers will have to improvise on their breath (inhaling and exhaling) taking the audio
file named “section-F_breath-impro” as an example. The change of pressure on the voice means that they will have to pass to ordinary voice and give an effect of
distortion — take the audio files named “section-F_pressure-voice1” and “section-F_pressure-voice2” as an example. It can be in the register you prefer, and you
can change the vowels and breath ad libitum. In the score the white part represents the improvisation on breath and the black part the improvisation on the
distorted voice.


• E-guitar string: The electric guitar string should be pulled tight using a foot to hold one end against the floor and the left hand to hold the other. The sound

123
produced is a quiet, airy thrumming. It may be best to attach the guitar string to small pieces of wood at either end in order to make pulling it tense more
comfortable for the player.
124
Electronics

• 8 Transducers/vibration speakers

suggested brand: http://amzn.to/2jJNx1H

attach a piece of tin foil to the transducer

each transducer requires an ⅛" (3.5mm) female jack to plug into


• Computer

running Max 7 software.


• Audio interface

with at least 10 inputs and 10 analog outputs.

• Mixer


125
with at least 13 microphone inputs, 2 line-level inputs, and a
stereo output.


• Loudspeakers
- two high quality, powered monitors for audience projection
(e.g. Meyer UPJunior)
- (optional) additional smaller loudspeakers for onstage
monitoring for the performers.


• Microphones
- 5 vocal microphones to amplify the singers
- 5 directional instrumental microphones for live-processing and
amplification of objects
- 3 directional instrumental microphones to amplify the
transducers

146
Commissioned by Duo 2KW, mit Unterstützung der Ernst von Siemens Musikstiftung
World Première: 21 May 2017, Sprengel Museum Hannover, Germany


147
Instrumentation
- Accordion
- Viola, 2 circular metal paperclips , 2 metal thimbles
Performance Material
A long wooden table (150x75x3.5cm) where the performers will be seated at and where to put the following
objects:
• 2 small, hard, plastic tupperwares — the best option would be to use the transparent lid of the plastic
case of the iPhone 6S earplugs. The tupperwares will be on a plexiglass sheet — 12" x 12" x 3⁄16" or an A4
size with a thickness of 5mm. It should be attached to the table with tape, so that it does not move.
• 6 singing bowls of these dimension:
- n.1 (7.5cm of diameter) with a soft base in order to bow the edges

- n.2 (6cm of diameter)

- n.3 (12.5cm of diameter)

- n.4 (11.5cm of diameter)

- n.5 (12cm of diameter)

- n.6 (10.5cm of diameter)
• 5 transducers/vibration speakers (suggested brand: http://amazon.to/2jJNx1H.

Each transducer requires an 1/8’’ (3.5mm) female jack to plug into.
The transducers will be put inside the singing bowls and on the table as following:

- transducer n. 1 inside singing bowl n. 3

- transducer n. 2 inside singing bowl n. 4

- transducer n. 3 attached to the table with some tin-foil attached to it in order to produce a vibrating

sound

- transducer n. 4 inside singing bowl n. 5

- transducer n. 1 inside singing bowl n. 6 with some tin-foil attached to it in order to produce a vibrating

sound
• Computer running Max 7 software.
• Audio Interface with at least 5 analog outputs.
General notes for the performers
Accidentals apply only to those notes before which they are placed, with the exception of repeated notes.
Viola: Prepare the strings 1-2 with circular paperclips (one AST and one MSP), see the image below:

148
Bow preparation: roll several fishing lines around the whole length of the wooden part of the bow.
Right hand pressure:

Left hand pressure:

AST = alto sul tasto


SP = sul ponticello
MSP = molto sul ponticello
c.l.t = col legno tratta

All performers

Accidentals apply only to those notes before which they are placed, with the exception of repeated notes.

Winds and Brass


Waldteufel: this instrument is played in two ways.

Sound 1: The thread has to be tight and it has to move in circle [watch the video in the Explanatory-Files folder].
Sound 2: The thread has slide on the skin of the instrument [watch the video in the Explanatory-Files folder].

Gelinotte (grouse) Birdcall: it can be purchased here:


http://www.qbc.fr/index.php?cPath=23_21&osCsid=4cb45019efa6d2cff5c3cf7396045f26.

Preparation of the bass clarinet: cover the bell of the clarinet with a stiff sheet of paper — a laminated A4 sheet is suitable — fixed with a
bulldog clip. The sonic result is low buzzing sound.

Brass: the three musicians need to have a table in front of them where to put the objects that they have to use.

Piano and Percussions


Position of the 2 percussionists: the first percussionist has to be close to the strings in the higher register ; the second percussionist has to be
close to the strings in the lower register.

Preparation: Put some tape on last fifth (f-c) in the high register to damp the strings.

Magnets: (5 Neodymium Cylinder: 60mm height, 12mm diameter): position the magnets on the indicated strings in the image. Lightly touch
the tip of the magnets and let vibrate (tremolo effect).

Vibrator: put a vibrator on the last two strings of the piano in the low register — cover with tape in order to damp a bit the vibration. The
vibrator has to capable of very low power settings. Suggested brand:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GL50RI8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

Pata-fix: check the image on the following page to understand where to put the pata-fix. For the natural harmonics, here is where the pata-fix
has to be put.

Laptop performer/Percussionist 2
The laptop performer (conductor, or other musicians) should have a laptop running a patch for Cycling 74’s Max software connected to an
audio interface with at least 5 analog outputs. Four transducers/vibration speakers (suggested brand: http://amzn.to/2jJNx1H) will be attached
with pata-fix at the base inside the singing bowls 1-2-3 and directly to the piano strings (check the image on the following page).

Numbers above the stave indicate that a change in the transducers should be triggered by hitting the laptop’s spacebar. The cue numbers
match bar numbers, so for example the first cue of the piece is number 1, the second 10, etc.

Instructions on how to download and use the patch will be found in the package provided by the composer/publisher alongside separated parts
for the musicians, and explanatory audio files and videos.

Amplification: all the instruments have to be amplified.
