Description

This moderately challenging piece was composed in 1974 for Milan Turkovic. The atonal composition uses tone rows, and requires some extended techniques (flutter-tonguing and glissandi), as well as triple tongue facility. Each of the piece’s four sections features a differently constructed row (The piece opens with a row consisting of perfect fifths, for example.) and a different texture. The top-most pitch is C#4.
