Tziltzulim (ringings in Hebrew), for tuba and electronics
was written during the Spring and Summer 2002 for Gary Buttery.
The tuba writing makes use of advanced techniques such as multiphonics, glissandi, and overblowing.
It explores all registers sometimes at great speed.
The electronics is drawn mainly from an early recording of the tuba part, which has been subsequently
digitally manipulated to create a ringing ghost of the tuba, sometimes preceding the tuba,
sometimes echoing it, distorting it, or challenging it with bell-like sounds.
