Description

Kymbalon by Stanley Leonard for percussion ensemble. From the composer, "The word Kymbalon in Greek can be translated as cymbal. I have always been fascinated by the sounds of these metallic instruments and the mysticism that is sometimes attached to them by different cultures. I focused on writing a piece using a variety of cymbals, gongs, and tam tams in relative harmonic relationships. After some thought I realized that there might be too much of a good thing listening to constant metallic sounds that were not able to produce a melody (even though Karlheinz Stockhausen had written a twenty minute piece forty years ago for a single large tam tam whose sounds were constantly being reorganized by electronic means). I needed a melody and also decided to use other percussion sounds along with the cymbals and gongs."
