- Program Notes
- All contrabassi begin with a flageolet tutti in E, bringing about sensitive shifting of timbre with varied bowing, to this homogenous harmonic tone. Intervals are then built upon the initial tone, descending to lower and lower register, and expand to a wide span of spectrum. The floating matter is then turned into energy that digs and grows in the ground.
