Sound Frames is a one-movement piece for orchestra. §Its formal structure is free. As the title §suggests, each section of this composition §is framed side by side with one another. The §piece is organized in a non-traditional way with §contrasting sections abruptly following each other §in succession. Occasionally they are recollected §throughout the work. §§The influences for this work belong to different §musical styles in the 20th Century. Primary §inspiration comes from the compositional techniques §of György Ligeti. However, the rhythmic as well as §harmonic languages of this work owe themselves to §Igor Stravinsky. The genre of rock n roll music §from the 70 s, known as progressive rock, adds §another dimension of inspiration. Finally, input §concerning the compositional process and control of §the form comes from Claude Debussy.§§With Sound Frames the composer experienced a totally §new way of composing. She explored harmonic, §melodic, and rhythmic characters that are different §from those that she employed in her previous works.
