Instructions<\/em>\u00a0(2014) – Nico Muhly<\/p>

Play constant 8th notes with your right hand on an instrument with a simple, not-annoying timbre. \u00a0With your other three limbs (if you have them), create a process such that the distance between notes played becomes larger and larger, until the distance is so austere that you have to stop.

<\/span><\/p>

undiscovere’d<\/em> (2014) \u2013 Ken Ueno\u00a0<\/p>

Facing the arsenal of your past,
Prepare yourself by thinking of all that you have ever done with said arsenal.
Now, do something you have never done with it.
Having done that, write it down.
This will become a list of future prohibitions in performing this piece,
the ever unfolding score.<\/p>

Music For Percussion<\/em> (1965) – Douglas Leedy\u00a0

At the beginning of the piece, the performance area is found to be entirely filled with percussion instruments of every available sort.

Two men
(preferably one quite large, the other small in stature)
dressed in ordinary workmen’s attire,
enter the performance area and,
as carefully and quietly as they can,
remove every instrument,
one at a time,
in any convenient order.

When the performance area is empty of instruments, the piece is finished.
