"It is impossible to summarise musical practice in one short piece, so the title "Compendium" is intentionally tounge-in-cheek and ironic in the sense that each movement deals with its professed musical element in a most unexpected way ... "extended techniques" ... are perhaps only "extended" in inverse proportions to each player's imagination." |
