Christian Asplund

Astral Projection
For flute, clarinet, violin, cello, piano and percussion
2014, Provo

Note:
For the first section (until Q) percussionist plays a batterie of unpitched instruments/objects of minimal resonance (dry), including skin, wood,
metal, glass, paper, etc., using brushes. From Q to the end, percussionist plays vibraphone with mallets.
Unusual time signatures: If it is something other than 2,4,8, or 16, the denominator indicates a fraction of a whole note. If the denominator is
6, that means that the quarter note of that measure is actually a triplet quarter note. So, in a tempo of quarternote = 132, if a meter of 5/6 is
given, the bar will appear to be in 5/4, but the quarter note pulse will be sped up to the equivalent of a quarter note triplet (i.e. 198). When a
normal denominator returns, the quarter note goes back to its original tempo (i.e. 132). If the denominator is 5, that indicates the quarter note
has the value of a quintuplet quarter note. If the denominator is 12, that indicates that the eighth note is actually the value of a triplet eighth
note. Etc.
From the beginning until Q, the character should be lively and aggressive. From Q to the end, the character should be contemplative, but the
tempo should stay the same.

Use brushes only. Use many unpitched instruments/objects of minimal resonance (dry), including skin, wood, metal, glass, paper, etc.
arranged in order of approximate "pitch", low to high. Notes on the staff should use these objects. Notes above the staff should
use cymbals. Notes below staff should be kick drum. Volume should be carefully balanced with rest of ensemble (i.e. somewhat in background).
