What I heard.. in MORALES;
Posted by Sarah MacDonald on Wednesday, January 20, 2010
The piece altogether is a total of 8 minutes, which could be classifier as one scene in the theater. The piece begins with a clacking noise of a time of membranophone instrument but doesn't have to be a drum. The noise starts off with quarter notes and then has a accelerate as the instrument is being striked faster and faster. Then there are xylophones being played as well as drums. Overall the sound is minor and has some clashing of the instruments.
After a grand pause you can hear the dissosant of the chords and a male voice beginning to sing in the backroom along with the instruments. There later comes in other voices such as a soprano female voice.
The piece has a contrast of different dynamics sometimes going from forte to piano very quickly. The piece together as a whole has the same basic instruments of vocals as well as membranophones.
Each sound being repeated over and over in order to create a theme, as the piece is slowly about to end you can hear the repetion of the same sound that was heard in the beginning of the clacking noise.
