HAYWIRE<br />

2018 | GRADE 6 | 6:00<br />

hay·wire (adj)- erratic; out of control<br />

This piece is based off the idea of imagination gone out of control. How much chaos can be fit into one<br />

piece? From chaos comes beauty and from beauty comes madness again. Throughout the piece there is<br />

this motiff played by the marimba that serves as a small sense of stability through the piece; this leads to<br />

erratic entrances and sudden dynamic changes. The second section is the first sense of calm- with solos<br />

from the flute and the soprano saxophone. However around the solos are harmonies of discord and<br />

unsettlement. Finally the piece's melody is played by the first trumpet.From trills to glisses this piece is<br />

what happens when your imagination and emotions goes a little out of control.<br />
