Program Note

p(P) is a concerto for Percussion and electronics. The piece is based on an earlier work p(X) by adding the soloist part, and the letter P in the new piece stands for percussion. The composition may also include an optional (improvised) solo cadenza, which can be played, e.g. in the end (just before the final ff marc. drum notes). Note that the total duration 13'30" is without cadenza.
The electronics part of the work p(P) is written with C++ and a synthesis software built by the author.
