pane‘About WALTER CARLOS:
AA tren tn would ineatrs
of classical music, none has had
more success with the public than
Walter Carlos, whose "Switched
On Bach’ is still, after more than
a year, the bast-selling classical
album
But who is Walter Carlos, what is
he? He's a boyishly slim, young
physicist ané musician (born in
Pawtucket, Rhode Island), who,
at the precocious age of 10,
composed a "Trio For Clerinet,
Accordion And Piano”, and four
Years later, constructed a small
computer.” At seventeen, he
‘assembled an electronic studio
and produced an electronic
composition which utilized
sounds created and manipulated
‘on tape recorders.
‘At Brown University (1988-1962)
Carlos studied music and ohysics
and taught electronic music.
Later at Columbia University, he
did extensive work at the
Columbia-Princeton Electronic
Music Center, and participated in
‘many concerts, including one in
‘which he assisted Leonard
Bernstein in a program
of electronic music at
Philhermonic Hell in New
York City
Walter Carlos lives in a New York
brownstone, amidst tape consoles,
2 Moog synthesizer and convoluted
mazes of wires and cords .. . the
most amazing electronic musical
equipment to be found anywhere
in the world
Intending to develop an electronic
sound producer which could
validly be termed a musical
instrument, Carlos began a
collaboration with engineer Robert
Moog in 1966, The result was
prototype of Carlos’ special
synthesizer on which he performed
and recorded his realization of
Bach and other composers.
Walter Carlos’ latest triurnph
is the score to Stanley Kubrick's
“A Clockwork Orange”. The
iano transcriptions in this book
{aro several of the highlights
presonted in the score of tho
motion picture, some of which
‘were done with his collaborator.
Rache’ Elkind, whose name
appears on the Warner Bros.
record album as producer of the
synthesized recordings.
‘THE CRITICS’ REACTION TO.
“A CLOCKVIORK ORANGE”
“"Dazzles the senses and mind.”
“The most startiins, profound,
sardonic probe of our civilization.”
“Utterly absorbing
and often horritying.”
“Bizarre, yet exciting use of musi
ABOUT THE STORY
The story depicts a young
man named Alex, whose passions
‘are violenes, sx (preferably by
force) and Beethoven. The life of
‘Alex and his underlings is ane of
thrillseeking crime.
Alex, jailed for murder, becomes
the subject of an experiment that
will change him into a being who
hates violence, sex and his beloved
‘musig. The experiment hes
conditioned him to react
petsivoly to overything, but the
inner conflict induces violent
despair in the young man. Itis
when Alex is driven to a suicide
attempt, he becomes a cause
Celebre anc a political menace, so
‘the “state” is forced to uncondition
‘him 10 allow nim to pursue, once
again, his reckless, violent ways.
With Carlos’ use of Beethoven's
Ninth Symphony, William Tell
Overture, Pomp And Circumstance
Marches No.1 and 4; as woll as the
original theme written especially
for the film by Walter Carlos,
the music counter-points the
coexistence of beauty and
horror, ard enhances the
emotional build-up the film's
director wants you to feel.
And 50 “A Clockwork Orange”
ticks away with deadly precision
right into musical history.10

By G. ROSSINI
Th. familiar theme of Rossini’s “The Thieving Magpie”
begins with the following phrase and is played through to the
end. In “A Clockwork Orange”, Walter Carlos chose to have
this work performed orchestrally, rather than on the Moog
synthesizer. Therefore, we are presenting this work in sketch
score form with piano accompaniment to make the work
more readily comprehensive.
‘The top line may be played as a solo for the right hand.
Where passages occur in octave form, either the top note
or lower note may be played.

Introduction to
TIMESTEPS
Bros. soundtrack recording of the
music from’"A Clockwork Orange”,
F.M. (frequency modulation)
stations and the so-called college
“underground’” radio stations
throughout the country have
been featuring the "‘Timesteps””
track from the album
Requests for reference lines to
this music have been continually
pouring in from all points, not
only from students of music, but
from scholars who were anxious
to see the “layout” of this
intriguing work.
Perhaps the sounds achieved by
Walter Carlos may be likened to a
“trip through time”... but in
any event, it was most generous
of the copyright owner to grant
the unusual permission to reprint,
in Mr. Carlos’ own handwriting,
the entire score of "‘Timesteps”,
and we respectfully do so on the
following pages, in mini-pocket
score size.By oes esesoce (eco eesrnss 07)
