- Title
- Primal Balance
- Year
- 1991
- Instrumentation
- for contrabass & flute (doubling piccolo, alto, & bass)
- Notes
- For Nancy and Bertram Turetzky. The balance sought, is not so much that of polar opposites as that of the fulcrum, where equilibrium is achieved by moving towards the opposite (in this case registral) extreme. Thus the flutist moves from piccolo to bass flute and the doublebass reaches high, flute-like harmonics.
