Performance Notes<br />
Nontraditional <strong>in</strong>struments:<br />
G S<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g Bowls: (Also known as Prayer Bowls) are a special feature for this work mak<strong>in</strong>g it unique and<br />
true to <strong>the</strong> meditative nature of <strong>the</strong> programmatic narrative. A m<strong>in</strong>imum of two bowls are requested;<br />
however, more may be used if available. If us<strong>in</strong>g only two bowls, <strong>the</strong>y should be performed near <strong>the</strong><br />
timpanist so that he/she has easy access to <strong>the</strong>m for <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> work. There are four ways to use <strong>the</strong><br />
s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls. Pitches near C and A are most desirable, followed by pitches <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> F major scale;<br />
however, <strong>the</strong> bowls may be unpitched. For <strong>in</strong>formation on where to buy s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls, please visit<br />
www.jonigreene.com and select <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>stillness</strong> from <strong>the</strong> “Works” page.<br />
1) Strik<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> bowl: (example Tuba, m. 22) follow dynamic <strong>in</strong>dications on how loudly to strike<br />
<strong>the</strong> side of <strong>the</strong> bowl with <strong>in</strong>strument’s provided wooden mallet. Some bowls also utilize a<br />
cushion placed under <strong>the</strong> bowl which rests <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> palm of <strong>the</strong> hand. It will be necessary for<br />
players to experiment with <strong>the</strong> bowls to determ<strong>in</strong>e whe<strong>the</strong>r to use <strong>the</strong> cushion and where<br />
on <strong>the</strong> bowl to strike <strong>in</strong> order to produce <strong>the</strong> best “r<strong>in</strong>g.”<br />
2) Susta<strong>in</strong>ed sound: (example Timpani, m. 1 & Tuba m. 2) us<strong>in</strong>g provided wooden mallet (and<br />
possibly cushion), player should apply pressure to <strong>the</strong> outside rim of <strong>the</strong> bowl and move <strong>in</strong><br />
a clockwise motion. Sometimes slow and firm pressure produces a thicker and louder sound<br />
(which is preferred) ra<strong>the</strong>r than mov<strong>in</strong>g fast with less pressure aga<strong>in</strong>st <strong>the</strong> bowl. Aga<strong>in</strong>, <strong>the</strong><br />
player will need to experiment with position, pressure, and speed of <strong>the</strong> mallet aga<strong>in</strong>st <strong>the</strong><br />
bowl. If necessary, <strong>the</strong> player may also softly strike <strong>the</strong> bowl and <strong>the</strong>n beg<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> circular<br />
susta<strong>in</strong> motion.<br />
3) Timpani Gliss: (example m. 91 forward) <strong>the</strong> timpanist will play one bowl throughout <strong>the</strong> work<br />
when not play<strong>in</strong>g timpani. At <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> work at <strong>the</strong> Aleatoric W<strong>in</strong>d Chime section, <strong>the</strong><br />
timpanist has pedal glissandi which are achieved by plac<strong>in</strong>g one s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowl on drum II,<br />
and one on drum III. Us<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowl mallet, <strong>the</strong> timpanist <strong>the</strong>n strikes <strong>the</strong> bowl and<br />
performs a pedal glissando rapidly. The s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowl should cont<strong>in</strong>ue to resonate<br />
throughout <strong>the</strong> glissando to achieve <strong>the</strong> requested effect.<br />
4) Arco: (example Timpani, m. 31) us<strong>in</strong>g a bass bow, player should bow <strong>the</strong> top edge of <strong>the</strong><br />
s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowl produc<strong>in</strong>g a r<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g sound. For best results, apply pressure downward. Have<br />
<strong>the</strong> player experiment with pressure and bow placement for <strong>the</strong> best response.<br />
Below are examples of <strong>the</strong> s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> timpani and tuba beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g at measure 1. S<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls<br />
are always notated with an “x” through <strong>the</strong> note-head. Please note that <strong>the</strong> higher pitched bowl is<br />
notated <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> timpani while <strong>the</strong> lower pitched bowl is notated <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> tuba. Bowls may be distributed<br />
differently if necessary.<br />
S<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g Bowls: example: Timpani and Tuba, measure 1. Also occurr<strong>in</strong>g at measures: 22, 31, 61, and 87.
G Suspended Copper Bell: The copper bell is performed by percussion 1 and should be struck with a<br />
wooden mallet similar to <strong>the</strong> s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowl mallet or thick end of a drum stick. Have player experiment<br />
with where on <strong>the</strong> bell to strike <strong>in</strong> order to get <strong>the</strong> best resonat<strong>in</strong>g sound. The copper bell should always<br />
l.v. (let vibrate).<br />
Extended Notation and Effects:<br />
G Fea<strong>the</strong>red Beam: have player beg<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> rhythm at <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>dicated duration (8 th note <strong>in</strong> example below,<br />
Percussion 1, measure 22) and gradually <strong>in</strong>crease speed to create a rapid end<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
Instances with fea<strong>the</strong>red beams occurr<strong>in</strong>g concurrently (measures 22 & 61) should not l<strong>in</strong>e up. Nor do<br />
flute 1 and flute 2 need to occur toge<strong>the</strong>r. This section is meant to create a brilliant and rapid effect.<br />
G Hairp<strong>in</strong>s without end<strong>in</strong>g dynamics (example flutes, m. 18) should decrescendo as soft as possible<br />
while mak<strong>in</strong>g a good sound.<br />
G Swells (example flutes, m. 61) are a crescendo followed by a decrescendo without a midpo<strong>in</strong>t<br />
dynamic. Conductor should gauge dynamic level to produce a “swell<strong>in</strong>g” momentum.<br />
Sections of <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>stillness</strong><br />
G Meditative open<strong>in</strong>g: this section exposes <strong>the</strong> s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls while us<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> vibraphone as a pulse.<br />
The <strong>in</strong>tention is to set <strong>the</strong> stage of <strong>the</strong> work as contemplative. Musically, <strong>in</strong>struments that enter should<br />
blend with one ano<strong>the</strong>r creat<strong>in</strong>g an o<strong>the</strong>r-worldly sound with <strong>the</strong> s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls. This section features a<br />
th<strong>in</strong> musical texture and a mix<strong>in</strong>g of very few colors to create <strong>in</strong>timacy.<br />
G M<strong>in</strong>i climaxes: like a warrior sparr<strong>in</strong>g, <strong>the</strong> smaller climaxes <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> work create <strong>in</strong>tensity that drive to<br />
<strong>the</strong> f<strong>in</strong>al climax. Each succeed<strong>in</strong>g climax illustrates <strong>the</strong> opponents persistence <strong>in</strong> battle. Examples of<br />
m<strong>in</strong>i climaxes occur at measures 18 and 47. Each m<strong>in</strong>i climax is preceded by a build<strong>in</strong>g and release of<br />
tension that propels <strong>the</strong> warrior towards <strong>the</strong> f<strong>in</strong>al climax at measure 84. This arrival po<strong>in</strong>t illustrates <strong>the</strong><br />
defeat of <strong>the</strong> warrior's opponent.<br />
G The Motivic Melody: While <strong>the</strong> motive of a three note stepwise ascent and descent is present from<br />
<strong>the</strong> beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g of <strong>the</strong> work, <strong>the</strong> full motivic melody beg<strong>in</strong>s at measure 33. See <strong>the</strong> woodw<strong>in</strong>d example<br />
below. O<strong>the</strong>r <strong>in</strong>stances of <strong>the</strong> melody <strong>in</strong>clude: m. 48 flutes, oboe, clar<strong>in</strong>et, and trumpet; clar<strong>in</strong>et and<br />
flute m. 63; and an ensemble traded melody at 71 through 85.
G Soli moment: Fragments of <strong>the</strong> melody are featured at m. 61. Programmatically, <strong>the</strong> warrior is<br />
prepar<strong>in</strong>g for his f<strong>in</strong>al offensive attack aga<strong>in</strong>st his opponent. As Miyamoto Musashi claims, it is with<br />
precision and tim<strong>in</strong>g that <strong>the</strong> battle will be won. The warrior will meditate and dodge his opponent who<br />
may pounce and jab exhaust<strong>in</strong>g himself. This section br<strong>in</strong>gs out <strong>the</strong> beauty of <strong>the</strong> void which has no<br />
beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g and no end.<br />
G F<strong>in</strong>al Climax: Occurs at measure 84. The opponent is defeated quickly and thus <strong>the</strong> battle ends.<br />
Musically <strong>the</strong>re is an immediate decrescendo and fall<strong>in</strong>g off of voices to express <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> battle.<br />
G Aleatoric W<strong>in</strong>d Chime: Musashi says that everyth<strong>in</strong>g we do not know is a lack of everyth<strong>in</strong>g we<br />
know. Such deep contemplations are similar to that of a w<strong>in</strong>d chime. The first pitch creates a tone that<br />
may never be followed or followed immediately by ano<strong>the</strong>r depend<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> w<strong>in</strong>d. The gap between<br />
pitches of <strong>the</strong> w<strong>in</strong>d chime creates a yearn<strong>in</strong>g for sound. It is from this space that I found <strong>the</strong> meditative<br />
state of <strong>the</strong> void. The percussion section at <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> work acts as a w<strong>in</strong>d chime. The conductor may<br />
beat time (quarter = 60); however, <strong>the</strong> music occurs by chance. The players are <strong>in</strong>structed to count<br />
with<strong>in</strong> a range of seconds and enter on <strong>the</strong>ir own softly. Like a w<strong>in</strong>d chime that has no formulaic<br />
pattern, this section will offer not only beauty of random pitch but a unique experience for <strong>the</strong> students.
Program Notes<br />
In <strong>the</strong> Stillness was commissioned by Hudson Bend Middle School from Lake Travis, Texas. I<br />
had <strong>the</strong> opportunity to speak with <strong>the</strong> students at Hudson Bend several times dur<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong><br />
writ<strong>in</strong>g process, particularly <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g phases. I asked <strong>the</strong> students what types of sounds<br />
and adventures <strong>the</strong>y wanted to hear <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> piece. One of <strong>the</strong> popular suggestions was about<br />
war.<br />
I began <strong>the</strong> creative process for this piece with “The Book of Five R<strong>in</strong>gs” by Miyamoto Musashi.<br />
The book expla<strong>in</strong>s <strong>the</strong> process of early Japanese warfare and specifically, swordsmanship. I was<br />
<strong>in</strong>spired by <strong>the</strong> warrior’s precision of attack after meditation. The warrior will not attack until he<br />
reaches a sense of calm, a <strong>stillness</strong>, a void where he ga<strong>in</strong>s his advantage of clarity aga<strong>in</strong>st his<br />
opponent. While his opponent strikes furiously at him, he rema<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> meditation wait<strong>in</strong>g for <strong>the</strong><br />
right moment to act. And it is only once <strong>the</strong> warrior see’s his path to victory that he will beg<strong>in</strong><br />
his fight. He will not defeat his opponent <strong>in</strong> an unnecessary rush, but with true and deliberate<br />
steps, peak<strong>in</strong>g and fall<strong>in</strong>g, much like <strong>the</strong> rise and fall of a textural crescendo on its way to<br />
climax. This type of crescendo is created through an additive procedure us<strong>in</strong>g staggered<br />
entrances along with an <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong> volume and range.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> Stillness is a work of measured growth. Its harmonies slowly develop over time. There are<br />
several <strong>in</strong>stances where <strong>the</strong> ma<strong>in</strong> event is a crescendo with <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g resonance of a chord.<br />
Along <strong>the</strong> path of this soundscape that <strong>the</strong> warrior navigates is a lyrical thread of motivic<br />
melodies. These are pieces of melodies that move from sections of <strong>the</strong> ensemble meant to<br />
enhance <strong>the</strong> color fabric of <strong>the</strong> w<strong>in</strong>d band. This style of “organized color” is often found <strong>in</strong> my<br />
works and is created when <strong>the</strong> entire ensemble pieces a melody toge<strong>the</strong>r by provid<strong>in</strong>g parts of a<br />
phrase <strong>in</strong>stead of doubl<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> l<strong>in</strong>e. The result<strong>in</strong>g sound is bright and surpris<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> timbre and<br />
texture.<br />
S<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g bowls are <strong>in</strong>troduced as <strong>the</strong> first sound reflect<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> Buddhist nature of Miyamoto<br />
Musashi’s culture. Metal <strong>in</strong>struments such as copper bells and chimes are used throughout to<br />
create bright colors. These <strong>in</strong>struments are highlighted at <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> piece which features a<br />
live w<strong>in</strong>d chime. This is created by players <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> percussion section enter<strong>in</strong>g at varied times<br />
which depicts <strong>the</strong> idea of chance. Each player has a number of seconds that <strong>the</strong>y may choose to<br />
enter which gives <strong>the</strong> piece a unique end<strong>in</strong>g at every performance.<br />
