Trio for Flute, Piano and Page Turner
Oliveros, P

Pauline Oliveros presents the Trio for Flute, Piano and Page Turner.

The Trio was written in 961, and marks Oliveros' last composition where pitch remained tightly notated. The flute and piano sometimes even act as a single instrument, altering timbres by masking attacks and figurations. The page turner has the extended duty of holding down keys silently for the pianist. (The pianist has to turn her own page once because the silent partner is too busy!) There is one preparation in the piano: a rubber eraser placed at a certain point against the low A string for a particular harmonic. (The eraser was carefully removed before one performance by a conscientious piano tuner, neatly sabotaging the piece.)

The players are asked for extreme differences in staccato and legato playing. The rhythmic structures are intricate, delicate, and difficult to perform correctly. What should come through is an expanding contracting organic flow, asymmetrical in its continuity.

For advanced players.
