Anomia (2007) by Bruno Ruviaro Perormance Instructions Anomia can be layed by six or ourteen layers (see instrumentation on next age). The sextet version has only one movement, called Anomia (mild). The chamber orchestra version has three movements: Anomia (mild), Anomia (chronic), and Anomia (severe). Each movement lasts a little over one minute. They can be layed in dierent combinations, as seciied below: In a SEXTET concert: lay Anomia (mild) twice in the same concert, but not in direct sequence: there should be one or more ieces by other comosers in between the two Anomia (mild) erormances. In the seciic case Anomia (mild) is chosen to be the irst iece in the rogram, it must be also the last iece o the same concert. In other words, Anomia (mild) can't be the irst iece o a rogram without being the last iece as well. Here are some examles o hyothetical concerts: Piece W Piece W Anomia (mild) Piece W Anomia (mild) Piece X Piece W Piece X Piece X Anomia (mild) Piece X Anomia (mild) Intermission or Intermission or Intermission or Piece Y...etc. Piece Y Piece Y Piece Y Anomia (mild) Anomia (mild) Anomia (mild) Piece Z Piece Z Piece Z Piece Z Anomia (mild) In a CHAMBER ORCHESTRA concert: all three movements should be layed once, but not in direct sequence. There should be one or more ieces by other comosers searating each o the Anomia movements. The concert may start with one o the three Anomia movements, but it should not end with any o them. The ensemble may choose any o the six ossible orderings: 1) [Other iece(s) otional...] Anomia (mild) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (chronic) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (severe) [...other iece(s)...] 2) [Other iece(s) otional...] Anomia (mild) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (severe) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (chronic) [...other iece(s)...] ) [Other iece(s) otional...] Anomia (chronic) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (mild) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (severe) [...other iece(s)...] 4) [Other iece(s) otional...] Anomia (chronic) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (severe) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (mild) [...other iece(s)...] ) [Other iece(s) otional...] Anomia (severe) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (mild) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (chronic) [...other iece(s)...] ) [Other iece(s) otional...] Anomia (severe) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (chronic) [...other iece(s)...] Anomia (mild) [...other iece(s)...]

NOTATION 1 2 4 7 8 9 10 11 (8) Quarter-tone notation used in the iece. (1) Glissando between seciied notes (2) The end o the glissando does not have to be articulated. The note given in arentheses serves only as a suggested aroximation. () Glissando between notes within seciied rhythm. Note values without noteheads (no itch) should not be rearticulated: they are simly art o the glissando. (4) Glissando without a seciied ending note. () Grace notes: always as ast as ossible. () Raid, unmeasured alternation between two notes. These trills are made to the note given in arentheses. (7) WINDS: Flutter tongue. STRINGS & PERCUSSION: Raid, unmeasured reetition o the same note (tremolo). (9) Accidentals aly only to the note beore which they are written. The only excetion is when a note is immediately reeated in the same register. Courtesy natural signs (in arentheses or not) are oten used to avoid ambiguities. In the examle above, all the our E's reeated in immediate sequence are latted. (10) STRINGS: Bartók izzicato. CLARINET: sla tongue (exaggerated tongue action roducing a short, shar ercussive sound. Always staccato. (11) STRINGS: Scratch tone (secial combination o bow ressure and bow seed generating a noisy sound without deinite itch). The sign alies only to the note above which it is written. Sometimes used with an arrow to indicate gradual transition rom scratch tone to normal tone roduction ( norm. ), or vice-versa. 12 1 m. 14 (18) Molto Sul Ponticello, Sul Ponticello, Ordinario, and Sul Tasto. Used with arrows when a gradual transition rom one to another is required. (1) STRINGS: The symbol on the let means normal inger ressure on the ingerboard. The second symbol (black and white circle) means hal-harmonic : inger ressure between normal and harmonic ressure. The third symbol (diamond) means the regular harmonic ressure. Arrows indicate a gradual transition rom one sound quality to another. (14) WINDS: The symbol on the let means normal tone roduction. The second symbol (black and white circle) calls or a breathy, indistinct timbre, but still with ully identiiable itch. The last symbol (diamond shae) calls or a very breathy sound, with almost no identiiable itch (or having itch as timbral modiication). Arrows indicate a gradual transition rom one sound quality to another. 1 1 17 growl (1) CLARINET: Growl : literally, make a growling sound in the throat while laying the seciied note to achieve a distorted and noisy tone quality. (1) PERCUSSION: Dead strokes. (17) XYLOPHONE MALLETS: (rom let to right) sot, medium, hard
