Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist (2010) - for solo piano Notes for performance General

• All seven miniatures are to be played at once. • Their order is central to the work’s overall structure and as such can not be rearranged in any

fashion. • There should be minimal amount of silence in-between each miniature. However, the miniatures

are not to bleed into one another without pause. • The use of differing barlines is used to indicate structural markers, and make no direct impact on

performance practice.

Dynamics In miniature three, assigning different dynamics to each note in a chord specifies the specific voicing of each chord.

A dynamic followed by a bracket is an indication that the dynamic is to be maintained for the duration of the bracket.

Gracenotes All gracenotes occurr directly before the note they preceed. They are to be played as close to the note as possible

These gracenotes are to be played within the duration specified. These may be played with slightly more freedom, but must not stray from the specified duration.

Page 3: Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist file04/08/2011 · Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist (2010) - for solo piano Notes for performance General • All seven miniatures are to be played

Gracenotes which have a roll indication are to be played just as a regular gracenotes, except the order is specified through the use of a roll.

Slurs/Ties There are two types of slurs implemented, as well as two types of ties. Slurs 1.) Ordinary slurs 2.) Dashed slurs are used to indicate phrase markings.

Ties 1.) Ordinary ties (two types)

a.) ordinary ties used in traditional fashion b.) ordinary ties used to indicate a full sustain, and sharp release (miniatures four and six

exclusivly)

Page 4: Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist file04/08/2011 · Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist (2010) - for solo piano Notes for performance General • All seven miniatures are to be played

2.) Dashed ties are used to show connection of a pitch when another note interrupts. This is usually used when a note is being trilled and a grace note interrupts the flow of the trill, yet the general gesture should not be interrupted.

Depressed keys Keys to be depressed silently are indicated with a diamond shaped notehead. This technique is used extensively in miniature four. (N.B. the example illustrated here is from miniature one, mm1. In order to be played the performer will need to take a moment and set their fingers into position given its finger positioning.)

Inside the piano The inside of the piano is called for in two locations. Once in miniature two, and throughout miniature five. The material inside the bracket is to be played inside the piano by plucking the strings with ones fingertips.

In miniature five the top stave is assigned to the inside of the piano. Specific details, such as when to dampen the string and how to attack the strings are specified as well. Pedal Exact releases of the pedal will always be given, unless marked poco ped. In all other cases the pedal is not to be used.

Page 5: Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist file04/08/2011 · Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist (2010) - for solo piano Notes for performance General • All seven miniatures are to be played

In some cases a more specific location of pedal release is used. These are marked by a dashed line coming off the pedal bracket. (N.B. in the example illustrated here the pedal changes happen independently of the attack points.)

Trills All regular trills will have the note to be trilled specified in parenthesis. Double trills - emphasize the main note indicated and let the other two notes provided interrupt sporadically. When possible execute with one hand only. However there are instances where this is not feasible.

Miniature-specific details Miniature 4 This miniature is notated on four separate staves. The diamond shaped notes are to be silently depressed. When they go back to sounding PLAY is indicated

Page 6: Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist file04/08/2011 · Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist (2010) - for solo piano Notes for performance General • All seven miniatures are to be played

Miniature Five Dampaning is indicated by a damening signal, and the string to be dampened. This usually happens at the end of a note initiated inside the piano, but may be used to dampen a note already sounding from a key struck outside the piano.

A vertical strike on the piano string is an exaggerated attack with the knuckles.

Rub back and forth on the string with a nail.

Using the flesh of the fingertip, press down, bending the string, and push back into the body of the piano. Dynamics relate to the speed in which the finger moves across the piano. f = fast, and p = slow.

Miniature Six The slur going over the silence is an indication of how the silence should sound (and look). This is the only silence where there should be a noticeable amount of body movement into the next gesture in order to show a connection of musical material over a duration of silence.

Page 7: Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist file04/08/2011 · Seven Miniatures for Solo Pianist (2010) - for solo piano Notes for performance General • All seven miniatures are to be played

Miniature Seven The initial chord is given and sustained over the full duration indicated. The attack points for additional notes to the initial chord are shown in this fashion as a means of clarity.
