Soliloquy
(1969) solo instrument(s) guitar/tape
Duration 9'
Written for Siegfried Behrend; tape (available for hire) in collaboration with Daphne Oram

See also Soliloquy II and Soliloquy III

Publisher:  Chester Music Ltd

Composer's Note:

In the Soliloquy, the tape and solo guitar are closely integrated, not only compositionally, but also the source material for the tape (though subsequently treated electronically) is made entirely from the guitar.

There are three main sections, which form one continuous movement: Dectamando, Andante Espressivo, Cariccioso Appassionate.

The electronic tape was made in collaboration with Daphne Oram in her studio near London.
