Description
This is a duet for a wind instrument and a string instrument whose registers are close to each other. I don’t know works for this instrumentation other than Mozart’s K.292 and Hindemith’s small pieces. Despite that,I chose the combination because,along with the STRATA series,I have written the BIVALENCE series for the same two instruments. I just wanted to write a STRATA like a BIVALENCE. I also desired to write a work which goes beyond conventional ideas regarding the bassoon and the violoncello.
This series is based on the idea of regarding registers as strata (the plural form of stratum).
