Rattlin’ Down the Road (2015), ca. 5 min

 

Composer: David Krakauer

Instrumentation: Solo Clarinet & Tape Part

Program Notes: The idea of this piece came from Krakauer and Tagg’s time spent at Yellow Barn in rural Vermont while workshopping Breath and Hammer.
The whole rhythmic structure comes from percussive-extended technique clarinet sounds and was inspired by the rattling of old trucks down narrow, dusty country roads.
The work comes with a score & an electronic playback track.

Recording: Track 5 of Breath & Hammer Album
