The Electric Bassoon

Reflex II

by Ângela da Ponte

This piece was written in 2009 and can be obtained from the publisher Scherzo Editions. This piece uses Max/MSP. It has some technical challenges, but it could be done by an advanced undergraduate student. The author was unable to obtain the complete score or Max patch for review. This piece uses lots of air sounds, multiphonics, and avant-garde rhythms. The piece may be harder for audiences unaccustomed to this style of music, although there are more accessible aspects in this piece than others in the avant-garde style.
