n Haunted ClocksBrian Balmages. Simple
aleatoric devices and clever effects combine to
tell the story of a haunted clock factory and its
mischievous inhabitants. Beginning with the sound
of a single clock, additional clocks seemingly
come to life and join in, creating a chorus of clock
effects including wind-up, grandfather and cuckoo
clocks. The Dies Irae is presented throughout in
various altered versions, adding to the somewhat
diabolical nature of the scene. Extremely unique
and inventive!
