Work Overview
Maye was composed in 2014 and was premiered in April of the same year by the French percussionist Laurent Mariusse in Montpellier, France, for the Turbulences Sonores Festival. The concert was composed of works for percussion instruments inspired by Southeast Asia or having links with this region of the world.
"Maye" is a work in 3 parts for vibraphone and gong. Each part uses a pelog, one of the two essential scales of gamelan music native to Bali and Java, in Indonesia. In Javanese, the term is said to be a variant of the word pelag that means "fine" or "beautiful".
In her work, Sophie Lacaze uses three most common modes in Bali:
- Pelog Selisir for the 1st part,
- Pelog Sunaren for the 2d part,
- Pelog Tembung for the last one.
