1 Spiriti for cordion and Orchestra Jukka Tiensuu 2005

2 Jukka Tiensuu: Spiriti (2005) Concerto for cordion and Orchestra Instrumentation: 2 flutes (also piccolo) 2 oboes 2 clarinets in B b 2 bassoons 2 horns in F 2 trumpets in C Timpani cordion solo Strings ( minimum) Performance note The form of Spiriti is cyclic, i.e. the performance may begin with any movement and end with any, as long as the order of the movements is kept, and each movement played at least once. Always attacca, i.e. no extra pauses between movements. cidentals apply till the end of the bar. However, they are occasionally repeated to facilitate sight-reading. Ornaments: mordent:, pralltrill: (start from above), vibrato slow: fast: (when combined means vibr. accel. or rall.) Tremoli are always measured (1/16-, 1/2- or 1/64-notes). Dynamics as usual, refer more to the physical effort than to the actual loudness. It is left to the conductor to fine adjust the dynamic balance between the instruments. Glissandi / quasi gliss _. o l.v. x z u t o are played evenly during the indicated time (not portamento). glissando. Where an even glissando is not obtainable, simulate it by strong bendings within a (chromatic) scale. A small note-head at the end of the glissando-sign only shows the approximate ending pitch, it is not articulated. Likewise, normal notes in the middle of glissando are for orientation only, they are not to be re-attacked. As the character of the glissando - and not the actual in- between notes - is important here, the performer may do small changes in the written pitches except for the first and the last pitch, if necessary to facilitate the performance of a rapid "glissando". (E.g. using alternative "not-so-good" fingerings, transposing a tone half-step up or down or, in the extreme case, leaving out one note altogether.) tenuto, play note to the full length. normal staccato. For the clarity of writing used often as short-hand to indicate a shortish 16th-note. short, sharp staccato (regardless of the written length of the note). A quarter-tone higher/lower than the written note. All accidentals are lid till the end of the bar. A quarter-tone higher/lower than the written note. All accidentals are lid till the end of the bar. A small pitch deviation, minimum 1/8-tone, maximum 1/6-tone higher/lower than the written note. dal niente/start from nothing (i.e. the audience should not be able to hear when the sound begins). al niente/let sound die (the last notes need not be heard by the audience) let vibrate cordion: a x l.v. l.v. poco M N Registers and fingering according to the Finnish button accordion system. For other systems, the accordionist should makes his or her own adjustments trying to get as close to the original as possible. Suoni reali, i.e. when combination registers are used, the lowest sounding octave is notated. Release the indicated (depressed) key at this point Leave keys down as long as convenient (until marked by x, see above) Lave keys down long enough to result in ca. -4 notes sounding at any one time. This always refers to both staves. You can divide the passage between hands differently than indicated, if necessary to facilitate the execution, aslong as you select as identically sounding registers as possible. For an example, see model in movement II. Start and end marks of continues "bellows-shake" (the keys are pressed down before the bellows are actited and the rhythm is produced by the bellows, only). additional notes: The repeat in bars of Scatto finale is optional. The dynamics of bar 170 in Scatto finale is f if movement I follows, otherwise ff. Decreasing sizes of note-heads are occasionally used to visualize the disappearence of sound (al niente). Even when not, the diminuendi esp. in mvt IV, difficult as they may feel, should strive for extreme quietness, even on the risk of the last notes not being heard.
