{"product_id":"lemoine-hurel-philippe-step-ensemble-193307","title":"Hurel Philippe - Step - Ensemble","description":"\u003ch3\u003eSummary of This Score\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith \u003cstrong\u003eStep\u003c\/strong\u003e, Philippe Hurel explores the idea of composing from a \"thematic\" material as simple as possible, then developing its consequences step by step, following a logic of progressive reaction. The piece is constructed as a constant back-and-forth between two worlds: on one side, a \u003cstrong\u003econtrapuntal\u003c\/strong\u003e and constrained writing, where the instruments respond to each other in imitation within a tight framework\u0026#59; on the other, a more \u003cstrong\u003egestural\u003c\/strong\u003e and incisive writing, nourished by playing techniques that assert the individuality of each instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter a first section heavily worked on imitation, the listening shifts to a long solo moment: the \u003cstrong\u003ebass clarinet\u003c\/strong\u003e unfolds here, accompanied by a nervous \u003cstrong\u003eflute\u003c\/strong\u003e, often on the edge of noise, as well as interventions from \u003cstrong\u003etemple blocks\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003epiano\u003c\/strong\u003e. The unity of the ensemble relies as much on shared harmonic fields as on this discreet but essential gesture: a \u003cstrong\u003eminor third\u003c\/strong\u003e that slides between the sections, sometimes embedded in the texture like a distant memory. Rhythmically, the pulse becomes less obvious, favoring a sense of movement and continuous modulation, with a desire for rapid changes of color. \u003cstrong\u003eStep\u003c\/strong\u003e is dedicated to the \u003cstrong\u003eNew York New Music Ensemble\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusical Genre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eClassical\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:3;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePhilippe Hurel\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003econtemporary score (ensemble)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eflute, bass clarinet, piano, percussion (temple blocks)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eFrench\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Lemoine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358183543059,"sku":"193307","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/13f44e0b910ed4a4238ee2a2ae695eb254431a6d_28576_847784a1-b290-4e08-97eb-0980679e15dd.jpg?v=1789457294","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/lemoine-hurel-philippe-step-ensemble-193307","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
