Trio
Graphic Score for Three Instrumentalists
First Performance: 11.11.11 Adapter Ensemble, Wien Modern
Trio - Page 1
Trio is a graphic score that explores relationships between each performer through the juxtaposition of graphic elements that suggest interplay between the three instruments. Each page represents a section in the music, lasting between 30 and 50 seconds with time being indicated horizontally. Although durations is interpreted freely within the proportional framework suggested by the graphics, events requiring synchronicity between players are annotated through a vertical line. Transitions between sections must also be articulated as a synchronous ensemble event. The ensemble should agree on a cueing strategy for each page to facilitate these events.
