Korunga Maadu
Andrew Cole
About this work:
orunga Maadu was written during the fall of 2004, Andrew Cole's first semester at Peabody Conservatory. The inspiration for this piece arose when Mr. Cole was fulfilling his Graduate Assistant duties and changing a light bulb in one of the Computer Music studios. The very first sound in the piece is that of a hammer hitting the blown-out light bulb. The second is the bulb breaking, and the third is the broken glass giggling in a bucket. These three sounds exclusively make up the sound materials for the piece. Mr. Cole would like to thank his accompanist, Sam Burt, for holding the light bulb during the recording.
