نبذة مختصرة : Lampi A chamber concerto for piano, ensemble and the Low Tone Orchestra. Dedicated to Daniel Thorpe Commissioned by the Forest Collective Piano, low strings, low winds, low brass, percussion, harp, accordian, electronics (fixed) and a.m. radios.

Round dots = soft pizz, tongue ram; crosses= Bartok pizz/key click. Groupings of instruments: Each colour represents an instrument or instrument group. Do not all play the same note: microtonal clusters encouraged. The electronic play back part is fixed and embedded in the score file. It is notated as an indication only.The score should be read in the Decibel ScorePlayer application on an iPad, or as a movie file, available on the composers’ website. Piano: Length of line notations is total time fingers rest on keys. Try to limit the hammer start sound. Opaque lines indicate soft pedal applied for duration of that note. Dashed lines indicate a tight tremelo effect, over one or several notes. Percussion [vibraphone, bass drum, tam tam, 2 large cymbals on stands]: line = long sounds (bowed/superball on bass drum), dashed line = large soft ...
