Nice performance! I would like to play this piece but I do not have the tape. Where could I find it? Thanks!

Hi Marti, please email me for details [e-mail]

Fascinating work. Mesmerizing textures and sounds of all sorts. What tools were used & how was processed the percussion to transform and create all these textures?

[@nikosstavropoulos9215]

Hi Pablo. Thank you for your kind words. The sounds used were a combination of percussion sounds treated with GRM tools but also a number of other treated instrumental or found sounds. Let me know if you want any more info.

Congratulations on the performance! Are the electronics just the tape (pre-recorded sounds) or are there also real time electronics?

[@nikosstavropoulos9215]

Thank you Rubens. The electronics is all fixed media - tape.

Mr. Stavropoulos, Were changes made to the part since this recording was made?

[@nikosgst]

Hi Shane, no, the score is the same. Perhaps you are referring to the cadenza ?
