This composer developed the pseudo-serialist “micro cell” technique as a member of the New Consonance Improvisational Group. An anvil, a bell, a whip, and a recorder playing rapidly descending sixteenth notes accompany chants of “wind and fire” in a piece by this composer modeled on “Degüello” (“deh-GWEH-yoh”) by Dimitri Tiomkin. This composer and Joan Baez (“BUY-ez”) paid tribute to Sacco & Vanzetti on the song “Here’s to You.” In a piece by this composer, the English horn, and later Edda Dell’Orso’s wordless soprano vocals, play a theme with the notes “short A, long C, short E, long C.” In the opening of a theme by this composer of “Gabriel’s Oboe,” the flute plays a two-note trill that mimics a coyote’s howl, followed by a “wah-wah-wah” sound. For 10 points, name this composer of “The Ecstasy of Gold,” part of the score to Sergio Leone’s “spaghetti western” The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly. ■END■
