Program note:
The premise of ‘Buzzes’ is to create organic soundscapes inspired by swarming hive insects. Through the use of brass mouthpieces with straw attachments, I aim to create sounds that resemble the motions of flying insects. As for the strings, a special bow stroke is utilized: the ‘wiggle’ bow. The purpose of the wiggle bow is to create unique sounds that resemble the motions of struggling insects. Throughout the piece, the idea of the ‘buzzing’ sound evolves in many different ways through various textures. As a whole, the ensemble will blend together, forming a whirlwind of sonic chaos.
