Shapes: 10 etudes intervalliques [10 intervallic studies]
Gardner, J

Gardner's Shapes, for flute alone, is a series of 10 short pieces in varying styles.

'We are told that Debussy, when asked which harmonic system he followed to create his compositions, replied, 'my own pleasure'. The pieces herein are based on free motivic variation. While some of the techniques used are associated with serial or dodecaphonic music, these pieces are definitely not serial. Not are they atonal or tonal. I have looked for a language which grows from freedom of expression rather than adherence to any one set of rules. There are rhythmic echoes of jazz and blues in some of these pieces, as well as colors of 20th century contemporary/classical music. I hope you enjoy these musical games or journeys - may they take your music into some new places.
