Description
This piece was composed in 2016-7 and dedicated to Stefan Kerstan, who gave the premiere in Leipzig on July 1, 2017. The music is avant-garde, with an emphasis on multiphonics and multiphonic tremolos, although timbral trills, harmonics, microtones, improvisation, pitch bending, and tongue slaps are also featured. The notation is unusual, featuring six staves denoting jaw pressure, vowel shapes, reed position, fingering tablature, dynamics, and traditional notation. The full range up to Eb5 is employed, although most of the music is confined to the middle register. The performance duration varies, depending on the amount of improvisation used.
