Three Sketches for piano - Full Score PDF
The Three Sketches develop two basic pianistic gestures, the chord and the arpeggiation. The first sketch takes the phrase and fixed-pitch stucture of Filipino kulintang music and superimposes it onto a chromatically shifting chordal accompaniment. The overtone series figures prominantly in the last two sketches as a harmonic device. The Three Sketches were written for Ralph van Raat in 2003.
