Formal call for performances

Featured Replies

Hey all,

My composition recital is up, but it's got to be over the summer, a bad time to find local students.

Would y'all be interested in doing a internet-based performance? I'm not sure on the specifics, but I've got a few neat ideas.

The list of pieces are:

  1. 2 electronic pieces:
    • Nanda Vishnu
    • For Guitar

[*]Piano miniatures

[*]Onus

[*]Schoenberg Jazz

[*]10tet

[*]Piece for Western Gamelan

If anyone's interested, please let me know ASAP. I'm thinking that some it can be pre-recorded, even in parts for the more structured pieces. I dunno. Let's talk.

Could you tell the instrumentation for nos. 3, 4, and 5 on your list?

I'm game for anything...

Onus: Flute (Some out of range stuff might require switching to an alto flute, but it's unmarked), Bb Clarinet, Bassoon, Violin, Viola, Cello (some scordatura because of range might be needed in the strings, and either some quick hands or overdubbing is needed for one section), Horn, Bb (or C) Trumpet. While for live applications more than musicians per part might be necessary, I'm really planning to explore the role of mixing as orchestration... Or I'm just sloppy.

Schoenberg is for a small jazz combo. I see great power in lack of specificity.

10-tet is 8 horns and saxes of various ranges, no drums, and 2 bassists.

They're all around the upload forums.

I'm a slop pianist, but I'd love to look at your piano miniatures. I want to get my hands on some music written today :).

Go for it :) Though, it is highly "modern" and not very "contemporary" if you catch my drift.

The biggest thing I'd want done is the Schoenberg Jazz (which needs an infinitely better name), since I don't think a small combo can be done piecemeal like the others... But that requires a lot of work on your end.

Thanks, thanks thanks!

I'd be willing to contribute to the Schony thing, but I don't quite understand it. I posted in its thread.
