Breakpoint Screamer

Composer: Zack Browning

Breakpoint Screamer for five trumpets and computer-generated tape was commissioned by the International Trumpet Guild (ITG) for performance at the 1994 ITG Conference at the University of Illinois. The work incorporates several layers of pulse-oriented patterns that are structured by golden section proportions. The tape part was produced using GACSS (Genetic Algorithms in Composition and Sound Synthesis) which is an original computer music software package developed by Benjamin Grosser at the Beckman Institute of the University of Illinois
