I have been looking for a piece like this for a very long time. I was never completely satisfied with the contemporary classical pieces featuring the electric guitar, until now. It's really interesting how it sort of reminds of a string quartet: the pencil as playing "col legno" and the ebow and the volume swells as playing with the bow. Very clever use of glissandi with bottleneck. A super tasteful and expressive use of the effects, always very musical and natural. And of course the development of the musical material works really well, also reminescent of a piece for string quartet in many ways. Did I already say that I like it? Good job!
What I love about this and your string quartet is how you still predicate quite lush pop/rock chords - major 7ths, minor 7th - then encourage the listener to step *just* outside that comfort. In this context the B half-sharp at around 14:05 becomes achingly beautiful
Hey there, thank you! I ask for freeze pedals, some loop pedals, overdrive, volume, and tremolo specifically. Depending on the player's tone preferences, delay and reverb pedals could be used as well!
Thank you! I adapted the technique from the .... jeté notation, but included the spaces to suggest an increasing irregularity towards the end of the gesture.

Wow. This makes me love the electric guitar. The entire piece is just dynamic and gently insists upon being heard. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Great piece! All theese sonorities you achieved inspired me to use electric guitar in my new piece for chamber ensemble.
objects in my room begin to levitate
This is beautiful! I'm totally considering getting a quartet together right now, just because I would like to play this.

Hi! This piece was beautiful, loved the sound. I was wondering, what kind of pedals do you use for the guitars?

Love your e-quartet! Jeté notation with dots and spaces … .. . is your invention o there is a background?
