All rights reserved PERUSAL SCORE - NOT FOR PERFORMANCE USE Loose Id for Orchestra Program Notes Id: "In Freud's theory, the source of instinctual energy, which works on the pleasure principle." (Lefton, 1991) Loose Id is an abstract realization in sound of the energy of the Id. Unleashed, without the counterbalance of Ego or Superego, the Id generates unbridled instinctual energy, resulting in an orgiastic frenzy. Distinct from a state of dementia, this piece represents a thoroughly lucid and intentional rampage of self-indulgence. Performance Notes A B ˙ b œ œ œ œ Ó A) indicates the passage of time, but NOT rearticulation, during a passage of indeterminate B) indicates an articulated rhythm during a glissando pitch. These passages are always notated with a slur. or other passage of indeterminate pitch. No slur is used. ? ‰ ‰ ‰ j Ó Ó ‰ j œ œ >œ b>œ œ œ œ œ ˙æ œ #œ > > > > > > > Arrows above notes indicate a quarter-tone alteration of the notated pitch. In this example (mm. 56-59, Tbn. 2) all notes are played a quarter-tone higher than the indicated pitches. 3 3 & Ó œ bœ œ b œ œ Œ Ó wa wa wa wa wa "Wa" indicates a quick opening of the plunger mute at the attack of the note. The notation ("wa") is indicative of the desired sound. Horns use trombone plunger mutes. An accent at the end of a slurred gesture indicates a sharp ending to the note (stopped with tongue or abrupt breath cutoff), instead of a sharp attack. This is version 2.5.
