SOUND REINFORCEMENT REQUIREMENTS

Each instrument (or at the very least, every two instruments) must be supplied with a

monitor speaker, and Laptop-generated sounds. It is suggested that a digital mixer such as

the Yamaha LS9 or better be used. This piece requires an audio engineer, running sound

throughout the rehearsals and the performance.

It is intended that this piece be played at a very loud volume, but that the sound of each

instrument is clearly and distinctly audible.
