[Program Note]
Time Traveler was comporsed between Decembere 1999 and Febrary 2000 for Mika Yoshida to whom the composition is dedicated. A single-movement work was comporsed at the request of ms.Yoshida for a premier performance with the Univeraity of Tronto Percussion Ensemble in May 2000. The work is second for marimba solist - who also plays a west African drum squeeze-drum called a "donno" - and an ensemble of four percussionist.
The composition is constructed around three principal elements : 1) a two-bar rhythmic pattern which hides the 3-beat, 9/8 time signature - the pattern is roughly equivalent to the double-bell (gankoui) patterns common to Ghanian drum ensemble music; 2) solo and ensemble combinations of short, cyclic phrase-patterns which further distort the sense of 3beat time; and 3) melodic lines which are presented by the soloist and enhanced by the vibraphone.
The title comes from a merging of ideas about time , and about the many trips taken by Ms. Yoshida between Tronto, the home of NEXUS, and her native island of Kyushu in Japan. The word "time" carries with it a double-entendre as used by musicians ; it refers to not only the passing of the seconds, minutes, and hours, but also to the musician's sense of rhythm and beat. "Time zones" exist in the world to account for the different positions of locations on the earth relative to sunlight. Time zone exist in music to account for varying conceptsvof rhythm and beat that are derived from differing musical cultures. Travel between musical time zone may produce a sense of disorientation in the music analogus to that which is experienced by the jet plane traveler. However, it has been said travel is the best teacher.
