For violin solo (2009)
While studying a string
instrument, it is desirable to avoid certain types of sounds. The idea is to
use these “mistakes" as part as the composition. The use of tuning
deficiencies, or incorrect control of the bow is incorporated to the piece as a
musical element. The harmonic map is simple; it is based on chords distanced by
thirds (B flat major, D minor, F major) with the common dominant of Augmented
A.
Violin: Abderrahmán Anzaldúa
