Continuum for harpsichord is a musical composition by Gy rgy Ligeti composed in 1968, and dedicated to the contemporary harpsichordist, Antoinette Vischer . The composer describes the conception and result of its technique quote I thought to myself, what about composing a piece that would be a paradoxically continuous sound, something like Atmosph res , but that would have to consist of innumerable thin slices of salami? A harpsichord has an easy touch it can be played very fast, almost fast enough to reach the level of Continuum theory continuum , but not quite it takes about eighteen separate sounds per second to reach the threshold where you can no longer make out individual note music notes and the limit set by the mechanism of the harpsichord is about fifteen to sixteen notes a second . As the Strings music string is plucked by the plectrum , apart from the tone you also hear quite a loud noise environmental noise . The entire process is a series of microsound sound impulses in rapid succession which create the impression of continuous sound . p.22 23 Amy Bauer 2004, p.130 describes the piece as trompe l il , creating a sense of stasis fiction stasis through extremely rapid activity. She compares it to a patient s description of their schizophrenic experience of, an intense Cerebrum cerebral activity in which inner experiences took place at greatly increased speed, so that much more than usual happened per minute of external time. The result was to give an effect of slow motion . Sass 1992 This piece has also been arranged for barrel organ and for two player piano s by the composer. Sources Bauer, Amy 2004 .
