Program Note:

The program note describes the piece "Dispersion for Chamber Ensemble" (1973) by Martin Redel. The piece is divided into three parts and is characterized by its adaptation of tone colors and the manner of playing of one group to another. The composer's intent is to visualize the wind, with groups of instruments placed as far from each other as possible.

• Part One: Begins with a long-held 'a' and develops into a pointillistic tone fabric ("refraction").
• Part Two: Involves a crescendo and decrescendo sequence, with each group attempting to match the sound passed on to them by the preceding group.
• Part Three: Gradually returns to the long-held notes, with movement diminishing as the long tones become more prominent, ending with only the 'a' heard again.

Composer Information:

Martin Christoph Redel (1947-) studied composition with Giselher Klebe and Iannis Xenakis and attended the Darmstadt Summer Courses. He also studied theory and orchestration at the University of Music in Detmold. "Dispersion" is dedicated to Iannis Xenakis.

Program Note

The program note describes a piece titled "Dispersion for Chamber Ensemble" (1972) by Martin Christoph Redel.

• The term "Dispersion" relates to the refraction of light into different colors.
• The piece is in three parts and is played without a pause.
• It attempts to adapt the colors and character of the individual instruments to each other and to contrast them sharply.
• Instrumentation includes wind, strings, keyboard, and percussion, and these groups should be placed far from each other to enhance the spatial effect.

Part Descriptions:

• Part One: Starts with a long-held note gradually splitting into a shimmering, pointillistic tone fabric ("retraction").
• Part Two: Three or four-note chords pass through the separate groups, each taking about one-and-a-half minutes. The sound transitions from a delicate flautando of strings to pure noise. The groups try to match the sounds of the preceding group.
• Final Section: The "refracted" ensemble returns to the long-held notes, which become more prominent towards the end, culminating in the sounding of the note 'a' again.

Program Note:

The piece described is titled "Dispersion for Chamber Ensemble" composed in 1972. The program note explains the concept and structure of the work:

• Concept: The word "dispersion" relates to the refraction of light into various colors. The work, in three parts, attempts to adapt the tone colors and manner of playing of the separate instruments to each other and to contrast them sharply.
• Visual and Auditory Indication: The instruments should be placed far apart to visually indicate the dispersion. The groups include wind, strings, keyboard, and percussion.
• Structure:
  • Part One: Begins with a long-held A note and gradually develops into a splintered, pointillistic tone fabric ("refraction").
  • Part Two: Three or four-note chords pass through the separate groups, each lasting for about one-and-one-half minutes. The sound intensifies from a delicate flautando of the strings to pure noise, with each group trying to match the preceding group’s sound. Abrupt contrasts lead into the final section.
  • Final Section: The "refracted" ensemble returns to the long-held notes with which the composition began, with movement diminishing as the tones become more prominent, culminating with only the A note heard once again.

The composer, Martin Redel, is noted at the bottom with his biography:

• Martin Christoph Redel (1947-): Studied composition with Gisalher Klebe and Isang Yun. He teaches theory and ear training at the Northwest German Academy of Music in Detmold. The piece is dedicated to Isang Yun.
