Product Description
Four Minutes - Four Daydreams by Paul Burnell, composed 2000
For ensemble with instruments in C, Bb, F, Eb, voices and percussion as directed in the score
Duration: 4:00
The music is presented as a performing score. Where no clef is given, play as if with a clef as directed in the score text (see Minute two). Transposing instruments play as written and do not transpose. It is allowed, however, for special transposed parts to be created in order to ensure an even distribution of the intended chordal harmony where this would otherwise be missing.
There should be a few seconds silence between each of the four sections.
During Minute one players other than the soloist strum their fingers rapidly on the body of their instruments, chairs etc., very quietly - producing an almost imperceptible dull sound (not 'tinny' or 'bright').
