4 Jenny Jackson [S]pan Instructions or perormance: There are separate parts or WOODWIND, BRASS & STRINGS All three parts are shown on the Perormance Score. Any instruments which it into these categories are acceptable. The size o the ensemble is lexible and will be largely dependent on the size o the venue, although there should be a minimum o our perormers in each group. WOODWIND & BRASS Prior to perormance, these perormers should agree on a common starting pitch. This pitch is always shown on a single-line line stave and is returned to throughout the piece. All other pitches are relative to this. They should also determine who will be in and. There should be a similar number o perormers in each group. Decide who will play the Woodwind Solo 1 & Solo 2 and Solo 1 & Solo 2 parts. perormers should be positioned on one side o the perorming space and perormers on the other. They should spread out and inhabit the entire space, wherever possible. It is not necessary or these perormers to be able to see each other. The dynamics are crucial to emphasise the panning eect. STRINGS Perormers in the String group should be grouped closely together in the centre o the perormance space. They will need to be able to see each other in order to coordinate events within the group. PERFORMERS need a stopwatch and should ollow the given timecode careully in order to coordinate events eectively. Timecode igures: Aroximate durations: These timings override the aroximate durations. These provide a guideline or events between the timecode igures.
