Memories of Q​’​s: Blue Grass

about

The basis for “Memories of Q's” are five passages from the ensemble-piece “Q's - for 5 ukuleles & bass kalimba”. The title "Q's" corresponds to the phonetic sound of the English word "cues" and can be translated in German as "Einsätze", "Stichwörter", or "Auslösereize" (in English approximately: musical stakes, cues, trigger). In the ensemble-piece develops, similar to a theatre scene, a rehearsed interplay in which one reacts to the cues of the other. Monologues stand between group conversations.
For the "Memories", these monologues were edited and combined into a sequence of five movements.—Albrecht Zummach
