HEAD COUNT Roll-Call

HEAD COUNT Roll-Call was composed by Steven Paxton for Collegium XXI, the new music ensemble at Santa Fe University of Art and Design. Ten performers are required, with as many of them as possible playing two or more instruments. Suggested instrumentation is indicated in the score, but players may substitute other instruments. Notation consists of 12 repeated cells, played canonically. Each player has the option of substituting an improvised solo for one of the 12 cells.
