	RonGeorge’s The Floating Bubble (1995) is the first work composed for the Tambellan,his unique American gamelan. Scored for a Tambellan ensemble of sevenpercussionists, and a soloist (George), the work is based on a very slowlyevolving rhythmic/timbral structure that culminates in a loud climax. Followingthis climax is a short solo, which allows improvisation, and a section playedon bamboo keyboards. Then the slowly evolving rhythmic/timbral structurereturns and continues to the end of the work.

	The Floating Bubble is a process piece where only a very basicrhythmic structure is given. The composer simply demonstrates for theperformers what is to be played in each section. It is not possible to play awrong note as the microtonal scale used is a homogenous one. Every note is partof the timbral/harmonic structure of the work. For the performers, the mostdifficult aspect of the piece is learning where to go within the Tambellanensemble and what to play when you get there. —RG
