The electronics part brings another layer to the piece by introducing synthetic piano sounds that follow their own laws of nature. In the culmination of the piece the acousmatic birds appear.

The string quartet is processed, while the clarinet and percussion are merely amplified. <div class="work-body"> Though the term noise describes a wide variety of sonic terrains, my interest is with what might best be described as disrupted resonance and distortion. The piece is made up of three basic material types, the most significant of which is the opening sound bed. This is expressed in the strings through various types of overpressure, on the clarinet with multiphonics, and in the percussion as grinding wood against metal. Though each of these techniques results in a certain level of unpredictability, the actions undertaken by the performers are highly prescribed. The second material type involves the contrapuntal use of pitch, and the third, percussive effects distributed across the various instruments. Each of these material types has its own developmental trajectory. It is these trajectories, along with the interaction between the material types, which guides the piece through its various distinct and cyclical sections. Wood Machine Music is dedicated to the Callithumpian Consort. </div> Composition An original work.

Title A name given to the resource Wunderkind Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2012 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource <a href="https://compel-dev.vtlibraries.net/items/show/676">Timothy Roy</a> Description An account of the resource <div class="work-body"> “Wunderkind” is a well-known German term historically applied to a person who possesses an extraordinary talent or brilliance (particularly musical) at an early age. The creative impetus for this work was the desire to explore the intellectual workings of a developing child prodigy, the electronic component used to expand the palette of such a restricted instrument while representing the mind’s ear of the child. The opening cadenza begins clumsily as the “child” seemingly explores the instrument for the first time. Musical ideas begin to mature, congeal, and find meaning. The fixed media playback begins after two minutes of solo, and a complex and harmonically-saturated sound world emerges from and interacts with performed gestures, meant to be perceived as imagined musical structures, astonishingly advanced for a mere child. All of the sounds in the fixed media were created by recording and processing my own toy piano. Wunderkind was awarded First Prize in the 2013 Prix Destellos competition, mixed media category. </div> Composition An original work.

The audio samples used are from the hearing, and changes in the electronics are triggered by pitch input from a contact microphone attached to the oboe–no intervention on the part of the performer is required.
