AUTRE

ANARBORESCENCES CYCLE

The duet autre (other), first part of the choreographic suite anarborescences, has been conceived to be performed by two men, two women, a man and a women and, eventually, as a solo, so the piece may be literally "other" at each performance.

The piece is accompanied by Assonance IV a composition for tuba, alto and electronics written by Michael Jarrell in 1990. This composition is part of the series Assonances initiated in 1983 by the composer. All the different Assonances are part of a continually open cycle, whose nature strikes at the frontiers of musical writing, rejecting the instrument's limits. These Assonances are like a composer's sketchbook.
