False Memories Morphoses for Orchestra

Instrumentation: 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets in Bb, bass clarinet, 2 bassoons, 2 horns in F, 2 trumpets in C, 2 trombones, tuba 3 percussions: 1. timpani (5 timpani needed). Seated far left (seen from the conductor) 2. crotales (played with two contrabass bows), tom-toms, large bass drum, large tam-tam.

Seated far left (seen from the conductor).

3. vibraphone (played with two contrabass bows), tom-toms, large bass drum.

Seated far right (seen from the conductor) strings

Performance note The movements may be performed in any order or separately.

Setup: Trumpet 2, timpani and percussion 2 as far left as conceivable (seen from the conductor), trumpet 1 and percussion 3 equally far right. It is suggested that the trumpets play standing and campani in aria.

Notation: Accidentals

apply till the end of the bar. However, they are occasionally repeated to facilitate sight-reading.

xz

A quarter-tone higher/lower than the written note. Also apply till the end of the bar, though occasionally repeated.

Ornaments:

All trills tr and ornaments are semitonal. Trills are always played till the end of the note (i.e. as long as it is tied to a note of the same pitch). Mordent starts on the main note (as usual).

Slow, wide vibrato. Up and down ca. 2 times a second (sounds like a slowed-down opera recording).

Appoggiaturas are played before the beat.

All tremoli are measured.

The glissandi are played contiously during the indicated time (not portamento), but expression through change of speed is encouraged. A small note-head at the end of the glissando-sign only shows the approximate ending pitch, it is not articulated.

Likewise, normal notes in the middle of glissando are for orientation only, they are not to be re-attacked.

Strings slide (glissando), wind players bend, the pitch a maximum amount of minor third up and down (wind players: use combination of fingering and embouchures to create as continuous a slide as possible). tenuto, play note to the full (written) length.

All staccati are short regardless of the duration of the written note.

Staccatissimo - as short as possible with the indicated dynamics.

_ .

o l.v.

al niente, let the sound completely die away.

Let vibrate.

II. Nostalgy: perc. 2 and 3. will both need two (contrabass) bows for this movement. Let ring throughtout. The dynamics between the two and with the other instruments should be carefully balanced.

Strings: in bars 1-20 and 45-50 the violins, in bars 42-49 the violas, should play with a slight temporal distance. Each player (or stand) starting and ending each note a fraction of a second later than the player/stand before. The distance between the first and the last stand should be roughly 1 - 1½ seconds.

III. Trauma: tr < >

Trill always accelerando simultaneously with crescendo, then rallentando with diminuendo to make the effect more "menacing".
