Passing Through

Composer: 
Michael Slayton
Scoring: 
5-octave Marimba (three players)

Ensemble Type

Instruments

Passing Through is a work for marimba (three players) and computer-genreated sound (recorded or in real time via laptop computer). This piece was a collaborative effort with composer Stan Link, conceived as an homage to composer John Cage's ideas of indeterminacy in music. The two of us worked independantly from each other, neither knowing exactly what the other was doing, or had done, until the premiere. The marimba pieces (Slayton) and the computer-generated soundscapes to accompany them (Link) coexist as separate entities, tied together only through the singularity of the philosophical concept. That being said, the marimba work (listed here) may be performed seprately. To obtain a recording of the computer music, please inquire with ACA, or contact me directly.

HEARING DAVID

Composer: 
Elliott Schwartz
Instrumentation freestyle: 
solo instrument with audio playback

Ensemble Type

Instruments

Composed in memory of David Gamper, who was Schwartz's student at Bowdoin College from 1964 through 1970, this work is to be performed simultaneously with a CD (Audio) recording of sounds created by Gamper. The background recording features a collection of sounds created by Gamper during his college years that have been assembled, edited, and processed by Schwartz into an accompaniment for a live performer. The score is a set of instructions for the performer, including improvisation notes from the composer.  David Gamper (1945-2011), Bowdoin class of 1967, was a composer-performer-sound artist, among others, was a member of the highly influential Deep Listening Band along with Stuart Dempster & Pauline Oliveros.

Under the Weather

Composer: 
Tom Flaherty
Scoring: 
viola, organ, electronics

Ensemble Type

Instruments

Composer's note:  Under the Weather portrays in musical and more literal terms water in motion. Isolated drips, impending storm, distant rumbles, crashing thunder and lightning, eventual calm sunlight and rolling surf are all implied by the music and the electronic sounds, most of which are unaltered from their obvious sources. Under the Weather was written for my wife Cindy, whose storms always end in sunshine, and my colleague and friend, Bill Peterson, whose "Storm Fantasies for the Nineteenth-Century Organ in France," appeared in Keyboard Perspectives, volume II (2009).
