Plectros II

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Commissioned by Chilean pianist Carla Hübner, and premiered by her at the Latin American Music Festival, Bloomington, Indiana, in 1966. In Plectros II the composer extends the idea first explored in his Plectros I - the opposition of two different worlds of sounds. It requires the interpreter to extract "electronic" type of sounds from the piano using both the keyboard and the inside of the piano. No special mallets are required, and the pianist uses fingernails, fingertips or the palm of the hand to obtain harmonics, resonances, and glissandi, or to produce clusters and a variety of different attacks. On the other hand the tape part, produced at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center in New York, has synthetic sounds - all electronically produced - creating artificial quasi-piano type of sonorities. The goal is to achieve a blending which gives the listener an impression that it is not clear if the sound is coming from the instrument or from the loudspeakers. Plectros II is not a dodecaphonic composition, nor a "prepared piano" one.

Doppelrohr II

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Bengt Hambraeus' Doppelroho II. The title indicates that Hambraeus has used as his basic material the range of tones produced by an organ. In this work timbral manipulation becomes a new compositional element. The importance of the organ is immediately established not only in its exclusive use, but as one of the most effective timbral fillers of the gap between live and electronic music.
