Performed by Wallace Halladay. I - 0:00 Berio wrote the sequenza VII for oboe in 1969 and dedicated it to Heinz Holliguer. From this was born sequenza VIIb for soprano saxophone, in 1993 by Claude Delangle. Berio enjoyed this adaptation more than the original oboe version, and planned to revise the piece, but he was unable to do so before his death in 2003. The sequenzas are a series of works for solo instruments in which the techniques of virtuosity are used to the extreme limit, pulling out the instruments of their tradition, expanding them in extension and technical and musical possibilities. Invent, in a game of manipulations and metamorphosis, new forms, new resources. Its roots are found in serialism, although this style will be noticed in the form of brushstrokes: very pointy, chromatic and rhythmically difficult music. The piece is built around a drone played on a B natural, which typically comes from an offstage source. In his instructions on the score, Berio writes: "a B natural must sound throughout the piece. The sound-source should preferably not be visible. This can be an oscillator, a clarinet, a pre-taped oboe, or something else. The intensity should be kept to a minimum with quite small variations. The B natural should give the impression of lending a slight resonance to the instrument." For much of the piece, Berio notates measures in seconds instead of bars, although there are some sections of the work that use traditional rhythmic notation. The piece calls for various forms of advanced and extended technique, including using five alternate fingerings for one note in a single measure, multiphonics, double tonguing, trills on multiple notes at a time, overblowing, flutter-tonguing, traditional harmonics, and microtonal trills. Jacqueline Leclair breaks down the piece into three sections. The first section goes from measure 1 - 92, and is primarily written in temporal notation, leading it to have a "free or improvisatory" quality. The second section goes from measure 92 - 121, and it alternates between temporal and rhythmic notation. Leclair argues that the beginning and end of the section are "very similar to the beginning and end of the piece" and that the middle part of it is "the most sustained and calmest section of Sequenza VII. The third and final section lasts from measures 121 - 169. According to Leclair, it contains the climax of the work, and the part after the climax "can be thought of as a large-scale ritardando or calming front he first 2 sections' much more frenetic character."
