duration: approximately 9 minutes
In performance, both trumpet and percussion start close to the piano, but ultimately move to separate stations on stage. No exact positioning is required however, the following percussion instruments must be at their respective stations:
Percussion: crotales (1 octave), bass drum
Trumpet: tam tam, suspended cymbal
Ideally, 5 microphones are used for processing:
1 & 2: Piano
3: Trumpet (DPA)
4. Crotales
5. Bass Drum
These can be routed to the patch as 1-5, or summed externally as:
1. Piano
2. Trumpet
3. Percussion
Cues in the electronics can be activated either via spacebar or by pedal if an ensemble performer. Max patch and score are available from richard.
