Title
Litany
Year
1970
Instrumentation
for organ and electronic sounds
Notes
The second of a group of works for organ and electronic sounds commissioned by Alec Wyton, Director of Music at St. John the Divine in New York. As the title may suggest, Litany is meant to give a feeling of reiteration without actually engaging in ostinatos; the pitch material is a scale (or in some ways, a Raga) which the performer may use freely within certain limitations.
