The World Upside Down for violin, viola, cello and double bass

Featured Replies

 

I have presented my Kleine Bledmusik for the same ensemble before and here is my second (actually, first) composition for the same cast. It is completely different piece - I am constantly changing the traditional range of the instruments and putting violin in the bottom and double bass to the very top. There are plently of grotesque, mocking moments and some serious moments as well but in general it is spicy ;) I wish you pleasant listening!

 

You have dedicated players... if I wrote bass parts like that for my immediate performers, I wouldn't have a reputation anymore. :sadtears:

My favorite section was from 38. Good use of time signatures. I love undefined rhythm. The 111 section was also clever.
My main thing to say about it would be wishing for more time with each idea... it's fragmented and feels like a collection, which has its uses, but I wanted something to be constantly in my face. There are times where it got close, definitely.

Really great piece! I need to learn how to do those aleatoric box notation things.

I love it! Nice techniques..
