EXCURSIONS is a one-movement work exploring two “characters.†A rhapsodic, descending passage is introduced by the cello, followed by a static, chorale-like phrase for the violin and cello. Their individual developments are separated by a slow, contrasting middle section. The composer has written: “This is analogous to situations in life: we stand by a crossroad, choosing one option and forfeiting the other. But in art, the realm of the imagination, we can perhaps afford to pursue more than one route to its ultimate destination… or can we? It is symbolic that in this work both roads eventually lead to the same place.â€.Excursions for violin, cello and piano, is a one-movement work of tripartite structure in which materials explored in the first of three large sections are brought back in the last section. The traditional statement-contrast-restatement form, which is readily suggested by such a description, is, however, not at all in the mold in which the work is cast. Rather, my aim was to subject the essential materials of the piece (two “characters†–the rhapsodic, descending passage played by the cello in the very opening and, later, a static, slow moving, chorale-like phrase for the violin and cello) to two entirely different developments separated by a slow, contrasting middle section. This is analogous to an exploration of the ramifications that two divergent choices made by the same person might lead to. In life, as we stand by a crossroad, choosing one option usually means having to forfeit the other. But in art, the realm of the imagination, we can perhaps afford to pursue more than one route to its ultimate destination…or can we? It is, I believe, symbolic that in this work both roads eventually lead to the same place: in composing Excursions, it seemed absolutely inescapable that at the end the slow, contrasting middle sections – both more resigned and peaceful than the battling spirits of the outer parts – should return briefly to end the work. The piano trio combination (once highly favored, but to this composer still as challenging today) is approached here as a collaborative effort of three equal soloists – partners. Of the available pairings, the two strings find themselves occasionally approached as a team pitted against the piano. The cello-piano combination is also not uncommon here, and there is an extended violin cadenza toward the end of the piece. The writing for the three instruments is closely and at times interlinked, but the players are all instructed to play from scores. Excursions was first performed at Brandeis University in 1982.

The swiss army knife of microphoness The award-winning LCT 640 TS is an incredibly flexible multipattern microphone. It works as a traditional multi-pattern microphone, a stereo microphone, and a mic that can change the polar pattern after the fact. Its full, crisp, yet well-balanced sound works perfectly well on any source - vocals and instruments. Adjust the polar pattern after the fact By recording with the Dual Output Mode on a stereo track, you can create any polar pattern in the mix with the POLARIZER plugin - even after recording. Perfectly-in-phase stereo recording, with a single mic You can produce perfectly in-phase stereo recordings by using a single LCT 640 TS in Dual Output Mode. Just point the mic sideways to the source and adapt the stereo width in the mix. The same sensitivity in every microphone Every single LCT 640 TS undergoes a series of measurements followed by adjustment of polarization voltage to achieve the same sensitivity in every microphone. With this Perfect Match technology, you can use any two LCT 640 TS as a stereo pair. Fully fledged for the daily studio routine The LCT 640 TS offers three low-cut and attenuation settings, plus a clipping indicator that lets you easily see if the microphone clips. What's in the box? The LCT 640 TS comes in a nearly indestructible mil-spec transport case with a shock mount, windscreen, cushioned mic bag, magnetic pop filter, and an adapter cable for the Dual Output mode.
