Fertility Rites

diametrically opposed,

diametrically opposed, like in the first movement where the gentle, non-possessive music for the marimba and the dark, longing calls on the tape contradict each other. But in the end both inner and outer worlds merge into uninhibited abandon and celebration of sexuality and life. Christos Hatzis Performance notes Fertility Rites includes a part for digital audio, cues for which are shown on the smaller stave in the score. Digital marimba pitch bends, to either higher or lower neighbouring pitches, are represented in the score by a half-circle symbol above the note on the digital audio stave.
