It is a piece that creates has several themes and implications: a different form of concert; a social process arising from the freedom that the players have to decide on the number of repetitions; the question of and time and space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1963, the composer wrote in his diary that he had it in mind that a concert should be an ongoing performance, with visitors wandering in and out at will. Ten Holt was also fascinated by social processes during these highly formative years. He became interested in time and space. This theme manifested itself in a piece for four keyboards, at the time still entitled\u003ci\u003e Perpetuum\u003c\/i\u003e. He embarked on this on 19 January 1973. \u003ci\u003ePerpetuum\u003c\/i\u003e was completed in 1976 but was revised in the period 1976-79 and was then renamed \u003ci\u003eCanto Ostinato\u003c\/i\u003e. During rehearsals for the premiere, in April 1979, all of the themes that had been occupying Ten Holt seemed to coalesce: small elements that together made up a larger whole; a different form of concert; social processes arising from the freedom that the players had to decide on the number of repetitions; and time and space. Ten Holt never consciously went searching for this form, but when \u003ci\u003eCanto Ostinato\u003c\/i\u003e began to conquer the musical world it became clear that his solitary quest had drawn something universal from the mists, something that many listeners and musicians would recognise.\u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eFEATURED \\x96 PRESTO MUSIC NEW RELEASE ROUND UP\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 1-16\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 17-40\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 41-74\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 74 (theme 1) - 87\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 88-90\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 91-94\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCanto Ostinato Section 95 (theme 2) - 106\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54420725760385,"sku":"2314650","price":16.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/0608917298727.jpg?v=1750620598","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2314650","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
