Work introduction
"Black Hole" is a work for orchestra with particular instrumentation: a large section of strings is flanked by brass, percussion and electronic instruments, without woodwinds. Divided into Part I and Part II, it's a work based in part on "sound bands" and in some ways minimalist and neotonal.
