Description

This piece was composed for Julie Green in 1975. The music is atonal, strictly serial and primarily angular (even pointillistic at times) over the full range to D5. Some extended techniques (tremolos, flutter-tonguing, and glissandi) are required. This is a very challenging composition, in terms of both technique and interpretation.
