Shane Cadman: Music for Insomniacs #3 (2009)
from his website…
“This page is dedicated to a collection of acoustic ambient compositions I am writing called “Music for Insomniacs.” These pieces are composed on no more than three staves and have no specific instrumentation, so that they can later be orchestrated as needed/desired by the performers. They will each be slow in nature (otherwise how could someone fall asleep to them), and generally five to ten minutes long. These also fit nicely into a concept I have called “realistic music.” “Realistic music” is music that can be performed live at an acceptable level by competent musicians with no more than three hours of rehearsal time.The scores on this page are free to print and perform. All I ask is that you report any and all performances to ASCAP, as well as to Illustrious Music. Also, while performance tempos are marked on the scores, they are there as reference points – the pieces may be played faster or slower as desired by the performers…”
