Todd Barton Transitions series

"To wrap up this series I thought I'd share my score to Butoh for Easels which I composed 7 years ago. The score is a series of performance notes for specific transitions. It is a study in slowly evolving transitions. So rather than me talk and demonstrate I will be leaving links to the score and the video of the premiere performance for you to study at your leisure. Enjoy! And thanks so much for coming along with the this ride of transitions! Btw, it turns out I continued this series after this…stay tuned!

"Using the amount of spring reverb as a transitional device. Besides transitioning from a washy/blurred to a crisper sound it also goes dynamically from soft to loud while acting as a quasi filter by altering harmonic content. Enjoy!
