A displaced Californian composer writes about music made for the long while & the world around that music. ~
The avant-garde is flexibility of mind. — John Cage ~
...composition is only a very small thing, taken as a part of music as a whole, and it really shouldn't be separated from music making in general. — Douglas Leedy ~
My God, what has sound got to do with music! — Charles Ives

November the Seventeenth
For English Horn, Contrabassoon, Wagner-Tuba, Celesta & Harmonium. ca. 1' PDF file (37KB) here.
Thank for pointing out the escape tuplet bracket. Score corrected ( as though "correct" were an applicable adjective in this case...)
It's written to work for either a Tuba in F or Bb, but at concert pitch so -- as will be the case tomorrow evening's reading, it can be played on a Tenorhorn.

Wagner tuba?
Where's the PDF? Not "here". :)

Tuben in C? I thought they only came in Bb and F. (But, of course, I'm no Wagnerian.)
And, bar 3 - Contrabassoon - seems to have 4 beats in a 3/4 bar?
What does it all mean?
Dennis --
the link should work now.
