Delay Taints

For dancer, cello and sub tone

For Tristen Parr and Laura Boynes (on the occasion of their wedding)

Red is for the dance, blue is for the
cello. The dynamic is never above medium soft.

The Red indicates choreograhy, and the
proximity to the cello of part should be
read literally (ie. close to the cello
player). A circle indicates start these
gestures in, or from, a circle that you

make/have.

The piece is intentionally slow, gestures
should be slow. The score page
indicates the range of the instrument
(ie bottom of page is lowest note, top is
highest). Likewise, the bottom of the
page is the floor, the top is as high as the dancer can reach.

Crosses for a gentle, Bartok pizzicato, or
hard clap/slap/hit; smooth round dots
are gentle pizzicato or finger
click/softer sound. Dynamics are soft unless the line is thicker.

The electronics part is indicated in
opaque pink, and plays through the
ScorePlayer into a subwoofer, bass amp
or high quality stereo. It is a mono
channel. The part is provided as a guide for the performers only.

The score should be read in the Decibel
ScorePlayer application on an iPad, or
as a video score, available on the

composers’ website.
