The impetus behind this was to remain within the auspices of "plastic sound," (the subject of my PhD project) and include instrumental composition. These studies served as precursors for two more works for instrumental performers. This presentation will focus on those two works; Analogies of Control for cello and fixed sounds, and K for trumpet and fixed sounds. Several recordings will be presented of different cellists' renditions along with their acousmatic (studio) versions. The trumpet performance will be also presented in contrast to its acousmatic version. Suggestions and comments from the cellists regarding future works are discussed as are other variations in this approach.
