for small combo
an original computer algorithm, performed live as a duet
This music was written for a production at the Whidbey Island Center for the Arts in 2009. For prepared piano, snare, xylophone and synthesizer.
"Finally, Ian Marsanyi’s incidental music... was the highlight of the evening. Performing the score live offstage on xylophone, percussion, synthesizer, piano and vocals were Marsanyi and his father, Robert Marsanyi. Matching perfectly the mood of various scenes of the play, the exquisitely timed melodies and sound effects at times elegiac and at others playful, equaled the whorl of Stoppard’s script."
