Louis Andriessen<\/p>\n

Workers Union (1975)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two or more players<\/p>\n

Any number of percussion players<\/p>\n

Instrumentation: Any loud sounding instruments<\/p>\n

Approx. 20\u2019<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Workers Union was originally written for the orchestra De Volharding (Perseverance), in which I myself figured as a pianist at that time.<\/p>\n

This piece is a combination of individual freedom and severe discipline: its rhythm is exactly fixed; the pitch, on the other hand, is indicated only approximately, on a single-lined stave.<\/p>\n

It is difficult to play in an ensemble and to remain in step, sort of thing like organising and carrying on political action.<\/p>\n
