each sound in solitude, a succession wound among absent threads 
falling, falling, lighter, lighter—
cavernous mouths crown a flickering song

without content, exiled from my container,
like any other thing, i enter as a thing alone into the world.
the world is what enters into nothing— things communicate only by their solitude.

three sections, one melody—silences before and after each section.

i) player a
ii) players a & b iii) player b
entries free, note duration and space between notes open, any octave displacement. the melody may repeat within a section, as long as it is played once in full. unhurried, quiet.

Duo
For Luke Martin and Coleman Zurkowski

Instructions:
Each performer should create a sound.

This sound should be able to be sustained, and its dynamics should be able to be controlled by the performer.

This sound should also be one which the performer finds interesting.

Similarly, this sound should be one which the performer would enjoy listening to for a long time or repeated over and over again.

Perform this sound during designated whole notes at the designated dynamics below the systems.

Dynamics below the systems apply to both performers.

Tempo is approximately 60 beats per minute, however the tempo can be changed to any tempo of the performers’ choice.
