"more metal than you(rs)" composed in 2020 for Filament Duo (DeLane Doyle & Aaron Gochberg).

Published by Kreating SounD.

Total duration is variable 8:30-11:30.

Notes

"more metal than you(rs)" is a duo for two each of the following: snare drums, 12-14” china cymbals, styrofoam, threaded rods, bass bows, small 4-8” cymbals (jing, Paiste accent or cupchimes, etc.), bamboo skewers, plastic cards, pitch pipes, and mini harmonicas.

The work was composed in 2020 for Filament (DeLane Doyle & Aaron Gochberg) and premiered by them on March 27, 2021 at Wheeler Concert Hall (Casper, WY).

Despite how the composition may sound, it is entirely composed with elements of variability and performer choice, but no real improvisation. The compositional goal being to compose something that sounds improvised but is not, using a combination of traditional, graphic, and text notation, and extended sound-production techniques. The duration is variable, approximately 8:30-11:30 in total and was recorded by Filament.
