Only in progress

This MetaSlendro piece is quite in progress. an experiment in a long meter=108. Klangfarbenmelodie derived from some manipulations of Wilson Horograms using MOS patterns applied to rhythm. This as outline in previous papers informed by David Canwright original use of fibonacci patterns but now including bilevel MOS patterns not discussed there. The recording is samples of my own instruments as a further experiment in working and really not for final consumption and just an idea. Much is limited by that medium. Since i expect this not to surface in the future for quite a while I thought some might find it somewhat fun. How it is!

Tantalizing. I wonder if it will be extended just in terms
of length or in terms of voices being added or... best of luck.

you appreciate the inherent problems. there is much than can be expanded herein with even these three main ones (doubling for one) but to do so without undermining of the line traveling through all the voices is the delicate thing. The final touches cannot happen till one knows what will be available, probably winds and or organ. Variation in the drums will have to happen last.

A reed organ or harmonium would be very nice.

Really nice, Kraig! I just want it to keep going so I can hear the patterns unfold.

Thanks Dave!
That would be the next logical choice being I have it. The funny thing about reed organs i have found is that they speak slowly and in rhythmic pieces it can sound like the person is behind the beat. It can drive me crazy. But i was planning to give it a try later on and see if i can cover up the attacks to have it work.

That's a good point, certainly for many reed organs. Many harmoniums, though, have a quick response, just think of all that nimble Qawwali.

Thanks for the suggestion -if only i had one of these too! Mine has 4 octaves and quite a bit of volume which i guess is the trade off. It can be done just with care though!

One might consider it part of the correct technique of an instrument
that speaks slowly to play a calculated amount ahead of the beat...

then there is the possibility of using samples, since that what you
are doing already with the other instruments. No problem lining up
samples!

Ever play a carillon? Trippy!

-Carl

Others as well as myself have tried to play ahead but that doesn't seem to work in a live situation . The best solution seems to double the attack with another instrument or line it up to attacks already taking place or to have it not try to articulate rhythm at all. While this is built with samples, it is only to work things out for a live performance. The sampler does not cut off when you release the note so the effect of damping a bar i cannot do here at least easily, much less change mallets . the two vibraphones i can only pan differently to try to create that .

It has been years when i have worked on any larger piece without a deadline, which gives me way too many options to try out at each step. I don't like it :), but I was hoping on exhausting this way of using the Horograms rhythmically although there already there is two approaches i won't be able to do here but i leave that to much later. The piece has already changed quite a bit as well as extending it into areas not so predicted by what went before.
