Product Details


Product Description

Critical Mass is a sculptural installation by Antony Gormley (1995), which as been displayed at Tate St. Ives, Cornwall. It consists of multiple iron casts of the artist's body, in various poses. These are randomly distributed around the gallery space. This flexibly scored piece is a musical reflection of this artwork, in 6 sections (labelled A-F), for any mixed ensemble, with an untuned percussion part (F). Rhythms and pitch material remain similar throughout. However, following an initial solo statement (A), the texture is continually varied within the context of multiple free canons (B-E). The piece concludes with a conventionally notated and conducted unison section (in octaves), as the work comes full circle (F). This PDF document is complete for performance, with a full playing score provided (which all players play from, with transpositions indicated/included). No audio track is given here due to the considerable flexibility and variability of performances. The original score is available via a search of the COMA Music Library.
Duration: Variable.
