Canzone of exalted generators and motors for monoctone and kazoo choir
Such a situation. Two small electric motors, one (smaller) of model building type and second (larger) removed from the old tape recorder. The speed and direction of rotation controlled by monoctone. The sound that arises as a result of their work captured by contact microphones and then amplified. No processing. To electric motors we add one mixed choir. Each singer is equipped with a kazoo. Every sound which he or she produces has to hit the kazoo membrane. Anyone who has heard the work of the electric motor and anyone who has experienced the buzz of kazoo expects certainly adequate to the situation aggregate amount of clamor and noise. We try not to disappoint him. But at the same time we try to shape our action into a form. Especially musical one. So... lets "sing" the canzone!
