About this arrangement

Piano Solo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1016772 Composed by Scott Munson. Contemporary. Score. 6 pages. AmeriKlectic Music #6352759. Published by AmeriKlectic Music (A0.1016772). A short, fast paced, lively and modern (but not to modern!) gigue for solo piano (duration 2:00).This gigue for solo piano is based on a single hexachord, given at a number of transpositions and often stacked vertically.Inspired by the book "Hexachords – a resource for composers" by Sonny Kompanek, Mr. Munson's piano piece, #4 in a series, is based on the hexachord 22122.As stated in the Mr. Kompanek's book "Each digit represents the number of half steps from the lowest to highest note of the hexachord, reading from left to right." So, at transposition 0, 22122 would represent c,d,e,f,g,a. There are 80 primary hexachords in the 12 tone scale.Yet displacement of notes, stacking of transpositions and other techniques provide a wealth of material. Mr. Munson elaborates: "I take many liberties as the piece progresses and develops, where the primary principal that takes over at a point is motivic development – "carved out" from the principal hexachord. Tonal structures as well are often derived from selecting certain notes from stacked hexachords."
