about

DP ARCHIVAL RELEASE 004 =======

"Perfect/Imperfect" (2008) is a long-tone composition by Duane Pitre. At the piece's core it contains a simple instruction for each string player to match (with guidance of a written score) a predetermined electronic sine-tone pitch as closely and steadily as possible, without vibrato.

This rendition of "Perfect/Imperfect" is for justly tuned string quintet w/ paired electronic sine-tones, all amplified via of an overhead 16 speaker array.

Recorded live at ISSUE Project Room | Brooklyn, NY | 8 March 2009
