Description
Huwuld Nyui is a setting of a Pima poem by Ha-ata, a song to the wind. Certain words of the poem are linked to particular percussion instruments. The vocal part combines sung, spoken, and whispered sounds. Text painting depicts especially picturesque words of the poem and phonemes derived from them. The full poem appears in the middle of the piece; the opening and closing sections consist of highlighted words and their phonemes. Huwuld Nyui: For Medium-Low Voice (Mezzo-Soprano or Baritone) and Two Percussionists.
