Star Wheels for Piano

$12.00

Star Wheels imagines different collections of modal scales interacting as celestial spheres. Dynamics and articulation distinguish the different "spheres" to help the ear intuit how they cross and combine.

Liberal use of pedal and resonance establish auras of color for each six note pitch collection and transform the arpeggios into chordal textures. Pianists should feel free to add or take away pedal in order to enhance particular effects and ensure that the music does not become obscured. Color and beauty of tone are critical.

Tempo should have an improvisatory sense of discovery, while adhering to the general markings in the score. Within those markings, I encourage the performer to explore ad libitum governed by taste and overall effect.
