TextStephen Crane
Description
For violin, cello, piano, and prerecorded electronics.
'A Thousand Tongues' was originally commissioned by cellist and vocalist Jody Redhage. This piece is a short but intense response to the following text by Stephen Crane: Yes, I have a thousand tongues, / And nine and ninety-nine lie. / Though I strive to use the one, / It will make no melody at my will, / But is dead in my mouth.— Missy Mazzoli
The electronics file contains three tracks:
1. Electronics, click, and voice - for the performers' use in-ear
2. Electronics with voice - for the audience
3. Electronics only - for other versions of 'A Thousand Tongues' that have a live voice, not this version
