ADDENDUM
Measure 84 and measures 261-272 are doubled with a vibraphone sound on the tape part, thus there is
‘no need to worry too much about notes (84) or to tear up your mallets with loud glissandi (261).
‘At84, rhythm and contour are enough (notes are a bonus), and at 261 light glissandi (visual) will suffice.
‘Measure 179 may be played as written or as follows:
(ay) ee
(ete.)
179
ci. mp——f 3
(That's how I play it.)
It’s crucial that the playback system be quite powerful. Amplification of the vibraphone is optional
depending on the size of the room.
