Digits
Access:
Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Neil Rolnick's Digits. This work was inspired by the use of "digits", as in fingers, to both play the piano and operate a computer. This is a composition for solo piano and digital processing in which the computer only plays sounds which originate from the piano. There can also be a video component to this piece of live images of the pianist's fingers as they play. The overall effect of the piece is of a classical, virtuoso piano sonata, in which the piano itself has been bent slightly out of shape, amplified, and multiplied.
