2 Notes on Seien The title, Seien eing ) is a somehat unuse German artiile oun rimarily in hilosohial ritings, reerring to the 'true an honest sel', a lie live ithout retenses or embellishments. It is also an aronym or Eiens an is eiate to my rst musi teaher, Gene Eien, an through Gene to his ie Franis hose suort mae Gene's seemingly unening generosity ossible. In Seien, the letters o the title an Gene's last name are treate as musial notes--s Es or the note E- at), E, I rom solege Ti or -natural), an D--reorere an shite to orm the themati an harmoni material o the musi. The stage erormane also ontains several symboli reerenes to Mr. Eien. First, a truet soloist is isolate rom the quintet an aears ront-o-stage throughout the ork. The soloist turns, at times, to lay ith the quartet an even sits aing them at one oint, ating as their iretor. In this seate setion o the iee, the musi ehoes J.S. ah's ist u ei Mir e Thou With Me; original meloy by Gottrie Heinrih Stölzel), a iee that I learne through Gene an one that insire me to ask him about learning to oose musi. In the nal oa o Seien, the soloist stans one again to ae the auiene, reverently erorming Tas ithin a sirling anare o eletronially generate truets, a humble tribute to Mr. Eien, hose ongoing erormanes ith bans big an small as ell as or araes, unerals, an other eremonies remin us that musi making is, at its best, a sureme at o human generosity. Seien's meaning an linguisti artiile are share in Greek) ith Iannis Xanakis's title or Eonta brass ensemble an iano). There are several onnetions to that iee beyon the lose instrumentation, erhas most notably a quasi-quotation, extrate rom a rather eeting but striking moment in Eonta that, I suset, sily alls out o Xenakis' olex system o organization. A re-imagination o this assage aears in Seien as a trio an anare at Letter. Seien or brass quintet an eletronis as remiere on May 6th o this year at arnes Hall on the Cornell niversity aus in Ithaa NY. The iee as erorme by Austrian brass quintet Ensemble Paris-Loron o Salzburg ho ommissione the ork. Perhas ttingly or Mr. Eien, the remiere erormane as given in ull leerhosen
