Solo piccolo, c.6'00
This piece conveys the idea of skimming along a surface, and bouncing up only to hit again, and gradually to run out of energy only to be skipping along again with a new burst of speed in as many musical parameters as possible. With fast, irregular rhythms, there are harmonic considerations too. It is based on a series of pentachords, usually presented in groups of two that sometimes have notes in common. Composed 2013.
