Something wicked : for flute, piano and soundtracks, 2002 / Gerard Beljon
Description:
Program note (English): Something wicked is music about witches and witchcraft. In the music first an enchanting spell is wrought, slowly bringing to life something horrible. When the spell is cast eventually, a wild dance starts in which even the witches themselves are unable to control what they have just created. No electronic sounds have been used on the CD that accompanies the live instruments. All sounds are natural samples. Except for the vocal effects, all samples have been derived directly from the flute and the piano. - GERARD BELJON
