Spin for violin solo

Spin for violin solo

Research output: Non-textual form › Composition

Abstract

The title Spin conjures up thoughts of spinning wheels used in games of chance and contemporary DJ production techniques and these find their way into the piece in the form of the chance process involved in the ordering of the 4 main sections of the piece and in the ‘remixing’ of gestures from classic 20th and 21st century solo violin repertoire. A rigorous interrogation of the all interval tetrachord provides the harmonic foundation of the work.
