Horde was similarly used as a title by Ernst in 1927. Tryptich (Of F. Bacon) refers particularly to Bacon's triptych Crucifixion (1965). The posture involves adaptations of pre-baroque material, e.g. Gesualdo lo pur respiro (1611). Use of synthesizer on Dys 03 was limited to Crystal Goldberg's bass part on Puncture/Throng. B. McGregor, M. Mansfield, K. Hotchkiss, J. Sorbie, M. O'Day, and R. Burgess provided valuable assistance.
