Am(or ) is anine-movement work of flexible duration, built up of constantly-varied repeatedmaterial shared by allplayers and performed inmoto perpetuo withoutrests. It is scored for threeautonomous groups (eachp la yi ng a t d i f f er en toctaves) of 2-3 percussionor string instruments.

Bitter Americasriques A movement is created by

linking all six staves inspecific transpositions.It is possible to createnew staves by swappingnote patterns (but not'key' signatures) withineach pair (2-01 and 02, 2-03 and 04, 2-05 and 06);a further option might beto substitute or add thematching (dyad) materialin Music for a Road Movie.

Each stave generates 4-16 distinct sections, usingtransposition, inversiona n d /o r r e t r og r a de .Transpositions are shownb y t h e s e m i t o n eindicators in the tablebelow, where -4 meansdown a Major 3 and +0 isas written. The sectionsare performed by thethree groups in their ownindependent order.

Players may elect to omitwhite (empty-headed)notes, to alternate notestied by forked stems andto reverse those linked bycrossed s tems; boxesindicate local repeats.In every case, the noteschosen are played asquavers, where = 180.Performers should bewareof unusual accidentals, aid-ing inversion, such as E#.

Looking after Country (Richard Cooke, Cardiff, 2009) is a multi-movement workof flexible duration, built up of constantly-varied repeated material performedwithout rests in moto perpetuo. It is scored for 2 autonomous groups (one playingan octave below the other) of 2-3 pitched percussion and other instruments..A movement is created by linking staves, appropriately transposed, from differentparts o f the s core. N ew movements a re f easible, and these taketheir titles from Australian dream symbols. 4z15i acts to bridge movements.

, like existing ones,Stave

A movement thus consists of 2 or more staves which each generate 4 distinctsections, using transposition (following thesemitone indicators in the table above, where -5 means down a Perfect 4, and +0 aswritten). These sections are performed by each group in its own pre-agreed order.

Players may elect to omit white (empty-headed) notes and to alternate notes linkedby forked stems; boxes indicate local repeats. The notes sounded (alwaysquavers, where = 192) are randomly chosen but played in the order notated.

A movement is created by linking staves,appropriately transposed, from different parts of

the score. Additional movements may be createdand these take their titles from

sections of the Moscow-Petushki electric railroad.Stave

, like existing ones,

4-28 serves solely to link movements.

Players may elect to omit white (empty-headed)notes and to alternate notes linked by forked

stems; pointed boxes indicate local repeats whilstrounded boxes and crossed stems show that notes

may be reordered. All notes should be read asquavers, where = approximately 188.

Elektroika East of Moscowor(Richard Cooke, Cardiff, 2009) is a multi-

movement work of flexible duration, built up of constantly-varied repeated material played

without rests in moto perpetuo. It is scored for twoautonomous groups (one playing an octave below

the other) of 2-3 percussion or other instruments.

A movement thus consists of 2 or more staveswhich each generate 4 distinct sections, using

inversion and retrograde, as well as transposition(following the semitone indicators in the table

below, where +0 means as written and -5 down aPerfect 4). The sections are played by the two

A movement thus consists of 2-6 staves which each generate 8 or more distinctsections, using transposition (following the semitone indicators in the table above,where -4 means down a Major 3, and +0 as written), inversion and/or retrograde.These sections are performed by the two groups in their own pre-agreed order.

Players may elect to omit white (empty-headed) notes and to alternatenotes linked byforked stems; boxes indicate local repeats. In every case, the notes sounded (alwaysquavers, where = 192) are randomly chosen but played in the order notated.Performers should take note of unusual accidentals, aiding inversion, such as E#.

is a six-movement work of flexible duration. It is scored fortwo autonomous groups (one playing an octave below theother but

) of 2-3 pitched percussion and other instruments.

A movement is created by linking staves from different

parts of the score and transposing them according to thesemitone indicators in the table below (where -3 meansdown a Minor 3 and +0as written). These staves, which canalso be read in retrograde, generate distinct sections, builtup by patterning pitch data in any of the following ways:

1 : gradually extend the line [1, 1..2, 1..3 etc]2 : gradually shorten the line [1..9, 1..8, 1..7]3 : random frames of 4-6 notes each [r..r+n]4 : sequential frames of 4-6 [1234..6789, etc]5

7 /extraction: omit notes at will

The two ensembles play sections in their own pre-agreedorder. Note-heads represent quavers, where = 192.

Each of the seven pieces consistsof a single stave prefaced by sixpossible 'key' signatures which, whencombined with inversion and/orretrograde, generate 12 dist inctparagraphs or sections. These sections,which are played in a pre-agreed order,are built up from the varied repetition of the stave, where white/empty note-

heads allow notes to be omitted, forkedstems indicate a choice of notes andframes or boxes permit local repeats.

In every case, the notes sounded(always quavers, where = 192) arep la ye d i n t he o rd er n ot at ed .

is a work of flexibled urati on, for 2-4

p i t c h e d p e r c u s si o ninstruments. It is built up of

constantly-varied repeatedmaterial which is performed

without rests in 'moto perpetuo'.

Each of the 3 movements contains 3staves which, under inversion and/or

retrograde plus transposition (+/-4 meanup/down a Major 3), generate up to 24 distinct

sections. Players repeat these sections in a pre-agreed order, varying them by omitting white (empty-

headed) notes and alternating notes linked by forkedstems. Pointed boxes indicate local repeats whilst rounded

boxes and crossed stems allow notes to be reordered.

All notes should be read as quavers, where = 192.
