Electronic Equipment needed:
- Sound System
- Recording Equipment
- Recording Program (or equivalent means) that can play recorded audio backwards
This piece for piano and electronics is in two parts:
Part 1. - The performer has the option to either prerecord Part. 1. ahead of time or to be recorded during the actual performance. Either way, a recording of Part 1. will be needed for Part 2. Special care must be taken in recording Part 1. so that there is no rubato and that all note values are as literal as possible.
Part 2. - The recording of Part 1. needs to be reversed. Part 2. begins with the recording of Part 1. played backwards over the sound system. This reversed recording should start immediately after the end of Part 1. to have as little of a pause between the two parts as possible. The volumes of the piano and the recording should be the same.
Special note - Although recording the pianist on the same piano he/she will be performing this piece on is preferred, if the necessary recording equipment is not available, please email iandeterling@gmail.com for a reversed recording of Part 1.
