Abstract
Ground: for Four Players and Their Instruments is a piece of music written for
flute, clarinet, violin, and violoncello. The facets of this piece that make it unique are
those which may not have had any possibility of existence without the services provided
by the University of Oregon Libraries. For this piece alone, over 600 hours were spent on
library computers utilizing Cycling 74’s Max/MSP, the Python programming
environment, MakeMusic’s Finale, and Adobe Illustrator, spread out on large tables
outside the Douglas Listening Room, or scanning through the stacks over the course of
about 10 months. It is clear that not a single aspect of this project would be possible
without the resources provided by the library.
