| dc.description.abstract | Recombined Forces, for full orchestra, provides contrast by changing the inner divisions of the whole. These divisions include the gradual separation of the orchestra into different choirs, evolving rhythmic and contrapuntal roles, and the harmonic reordering of one central recurring chord into smaller chords with contrasting characters. The orchestra begins as a whole divided into the traditional choirs, grouped by their physical similarities, and ends as a whole grouped by timbral characteristics. Grouped instruments enter and cutoff together, and play the same contrapuntal lines. Harmonically, the piece progresses through four stages. The recurring total sonority, set class [01234578t], begins as three members of set class [013], becomes three of [016], three of [025], an finally three of [037]. The piece develops by recycling materials rather than by replacing materials, and reveals how subtle changes in organization can lead to vastly different results. | en_US |
