REMARKS

= quarter tone higher

= three quarter tone higher

= quarter tone lower

= three quarter tone lower

= irregular tremolo

Woodwind and brass:

= toneless sounds of blowing

= consonants to be articulated into the mouthpiece. hold the consonant as long as the dashed line indicates

= pitched but very breathy sound

= sounds played on the "water trombone" and the "water trumpet". The sound that occurs is unstable and interspersed with clicking noise

= gradual progression from one technique to another

Percussion:

= (washboard) scratch along the washboard with a hard mallet = tremolo: from slow to fast and back to slow again

Strings:

m.s.t., s.t., ord., s.p., m.s.p. = molto sul tasto, sul tasto, ordianario, sul ponticello, molto sul ponticello

c.l., c.l.cr., c.l.b. = col legno tratto, col legno crini, col legno battuto

I II = roman numerals above a note indicate the string on which to play III IV

= play with the wire wrap of the bow behind the bridge on the indicated string = play with the pad of the bow or thumb on the indicated string

= move the bow in the notated direction on the string(s) along the axis of the bridge and the tuning pegs

= tip the string on the indicated note - a mixture of the string's note and the tipped note will occur

= play behind the bridge on the indicated string

= play with the bow on the body of the instrument or if preferred, execute the action on damped strings (best on string III and IV) - try to avoid as much tone as possible. This action should produce white noise

= indicates the velocity of the bowing: 0 = no velocity

0.5 = very very slow = approx. 60 sec. per bow (unstable tone) 1 = very slow = approx. 15 sec. per bow (stable tone) 2 = slow = approx. 3 sec. per bow

3 = medium velocity = approx. 1 bow per sec. 4 = fast = approx. 1.5 bows per sec.

5 = very fast = approx. 2 bows per sec.

6 = as fast as possible = approx. 2.5 bows per sec. all numbers lower than 1 should result in an unstable, grainy sound. No matter what the indicated speed is, the entire length of the bow should always be used. The indication "6" does not mean a normal tremolo! the dynamics indicate in this case the bow pressure:

ppp = very very light bow pressure

pp = very light bow pressure

p = light bow pressure

mf = medium bow pressure

f = high bow pressure

ff = very high bow pressure

= a "snoring" effect to be achieved by a slow vertical steep shift of the bow, pressing the frog between the middle of the fingerboard and the edge of the fingerboard = Bartók - pizz

= pull at the string with the left hand and touch it with the wood of the bow very lightly immediately thereafter so that a loud rattling sound is produced

= irregular tremolo

= gradual progression from one technique to another

Egg slicer:

= pizzicato on a low, mid and high string of an egg slicer
