{"product_id":"casella-compound-autonomy","title":"Casella-Compound Autonomy (SP)-B\/2V\/C\/Cro.\/X\/4M\/4T\/P\/PN\/ BG","description":"\u003ci\u003eCompound Autonomy\u003c\/i\u003e by Jim Casella builds its character from a variety of independent patterns. Written in the meter of 7\/8, a primary ostinato comprised of two pitches repeated in a pattern of 4+3 begins the piece. This ostinato permeates the entire work as overlapping and intermingling lines get introduced little by little. At times, a hi-hat rhythm gives the illusion of 4\/4 time...but it is only an illusion. Opposing (or autonomous) elements break the barrier of the typical barline as they blend (or compound) together, occasionally landing on a common downbeat but always providing a churning and weaving fabric upon which the main melodic material can be framed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten for a larger ensemble (15 players, or 17 if marimba parts can be doubled), groove, balance, and strong individual and ensemble timing skills are essential. Mathematic, complex, and mysteriously beautiful, Compound Autonomy is sure to take your audiences to new sonic landscapes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis piece comes with a full, bound score and includes a CD-Rom containing an audio recording and all individual parts available for printing. Also included in each package is an \"abridged\" version (approx. 4'30\") for programming situations where the original is too long in duration.","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43826864685110,"sku":"TSPCE-43","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/casella-compound-autonomy-sp-b-2v-c-cro-x-4m-4t-p-pn-bg.jpg?v=1773486081","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/casella-compound-autonomy","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
