Spe aker 2

Laptop Organ Flute

Audience If using pipe organ, locate speakers and flutist near console for cuing purposes.

Duration: 7 minutes

Performance note: Before beginning, establish approximate length of flutist breath. Performers breathe in unison measures 1-3 and 32-33. Otherwise, organ/electronics player follows flutist throughout, though pitch changes need not be exactly aligned. Improvisation sections (m. 10 and m. 31) do not require full breath phrases. Max cues in score refer to number keys on laptop keyboard.
