The Grind (2013) for brass quintet
Instrumentation 2 trumpets in b-flat Horn in F Trombone Tuba duration: 5 minutes 30 seconds Notes THE GRIND is a commentary of emotions and experiences via "Grindr." Grindr is a geosocialnetworking application for smartphones and tables for men who are mostly homosexual, bisexual, or sexually curious. The point of "Grindr" is to locate similar men in the same area. Due to the environment of this app, one can sense the promiscuous and trivial atmosphere that is suggested by nudity, anonymity, and the context of profile information. Whereas the brass quintet is concerned, I needed an ensemble to aurally "assault" the audience right from the opening section. The atmosphere of "Grindr" is taken to it's extreme by the use of accented-staccatos, violent and harsh playing, and sexual grunts and groans vocalized by the ensemble. These traits form a fine border between the absurd, comedic, dismal, and carnal nature of the piece. Players should not be afraid to sacrifice tone and tuning in order to achieve such violent playing. This ties in with my obsession with the study of "controlled absurdity." Score is in C
Performance Notes -Accented staccatos are to be played violently and harsh, think "spit" -The dashed bracket at the top of the score signifies the gradual shift of tempi. Though the score is marked by specific tempi, use this as a suggestion in order to stay together as an ensemble -Tempi without a dashed bracket are to be played strictly -X'd noteheads are spoken word and sounds. Sounds such as "ugh," "argh," "uh," and "ah" to name a few are to be gutteral and sexual. This is a half-funny/half-serious approach to the piece's subject matter. Instruments should be away from the face when worded notes occur. Vocal pitch is relative to its position on the staff. -Non-noteheads signify to play the passage using air and tongue, sputtery. The brackets around the non-noteheads on pages 14-15 signify to ab lib. -Thick lined arrows signify to continue the preceding material for the duration of the arrow. -Trumpets use straight mutes
