Product Description

The Crow

Score and Instrumentation Explanations



The Crow, is an Avant Garde piece that plays on musical timbres of instruments to represent sounds, feelings, and animals.



Flute-represents a birds call.

Trombone-carries the sound and theme of the crow throughout the piece.

Triangle-is the soft sound of noises in the woods, that are so low that they are often not heard.

Maracas-represents the rattlesnakes rattle when he is disturbed and angry.

Wood Blocks-represent the sound of the woodpecker.

Bass Guitar-is the background of the piece and sometimes the edgy feeling one gets when walking in (what they thought) was an empty forest.

Piano-is the crows call.

Tenor Voice-is meant to represent a cry in the forest but is only included twice in the piece.

Cello-Is also the background music but gives one the feeling of coldness creeping upon them.



The piece is meant to be slow, and eerie; maybe to some it sounds spacey.

The glissandos for the Bass Guitar are to be played when the guitarist hits the first note and uses a glass cup against the string and slowly move it up and down the string to make a weird vibrato like sound.

The glissandos for the Trombone are mainly the echoes of the forest that surround the person. Its the crows call being echoed.

The Piano can play with the crows call starting out loud then fading or diminishing as it also echoes in the distance. Not to be played too fast.

The Flute can get louder as it repeats its lines.

The Triangle is soft but not too soft. It must be able to be heard against the other instruments.

The Cello may use as much vibrato or screech sounds as it wants with the use of the bow.

The Tenor may use as much legato as they want.
