Silver Streetcar for the Orchestra is one of a series of pieces for conventional musical instruments I have been making since 1982. These include Crossings, for small orchestra with slow-sweep pure wave oscillator (1982–1984); In Memoriam Jon Higgins, for clarinet with slow-sweep pure wave oscillator (1984); Septet for Three Winds, Four Strings and Pure Wave Oscillator (1985); Kettles, for five timpani with two slow-sweep pure wave oscillators (1987) and Fideliotrio, for viola, cello and piano (1987–1988). All these works explore natural timbral and spatial characteristics of sound waves.
