Abstract
Mythologies: Three Tableaux for Flute, Harp, Strings and Percussion is a c. 12-minute
composition that deals with the nature of ambience in music. Compositional procedures used
in each tableau attempt to highlight acoustic and atmospheric idiosyncrasies within the
instrumental ensemble. The first tableau is based on two melodic and harmonic motives
which are systematically expanded through repetition and variation. The second tableau
features a call and response between flute and harp in a dreamy and lyrical interlude. The
third tableau develops material through a process of shifting harmonic and rhythmic textures
to create a mosaic of ambient colour. Each tableau is named after one of the three original
muses in Greek mythology: Melet! (Practice), Aiod! (Song) and Mn!m! (Memory).

Keywords
ambience, mythologies, flute, harp, strings, percussion, tableaux, tableau, muses

PROGRAM NOTE
Mythologies: Three Tableaux for Flute, Harp, Strings and Percussion explores the idea of
ambience in music an element that can be traced to Debussy and even to traditional gamelan
music in its emphasis on timbre and resonance. Each tableau is named after one of the three
original muses in Greek mythology: Melet! (meaning Practice), Aiod! (Song) and Mn!m!
(Memory). The muses were the goddesses of inspiration and knowledge of the arts, and
remembered all things. The first tableau is based on two melodic and harmonic motives that are
systematically expanded through repetition and variation. The second tableau is a dreamy and
lyrical interlude a call and response between flute and harp. The third and final tableau
develops material through a process of shifting harmonic and rhythmic textures to create a mosaic
of ambient colour. The compositional techniques used in each tableau attempt to highlight the
acoustic and atmospheric idiosyncrasies of the instrumental ensemble.
