Antt i Auvinen's Karkija for bass clarinet and marimba was a commission of Duo Xylokosmos. The work was premiered on 22 November 2007 by Ingolfur Vilhjalmsson (bass clarinet) and Tobias Kuttman (marimba) in Neumarkt, Austria. This product includes one performance score (B4 sized loose pages) in a folder. In the music of Antti Auvinen (b. 1974), a modernist compositional language is fused with a powerful sense of drama and a charged intensity generated through the explosive clash of conflicting tensions. Auvinen’s soundworld is multifaceted and employs unusual combinations of instruments and a wide variety of modern, often rough and noisy extended techniques. His rich and expressive use of rhythms extends from the meditative stasis of freely notated fields to the edgy, insistent energy of multiple superimposed rhythmic layers.

Processions and Rounds is based on a seven-note diatonic pattern from the natural-minor mode. It repeats three times, and continues to repeat using a reduction sequence similar to a South Indian Korvai pattern (i.e., 777-666-555-444-333-222-1 11). Each reduction eliminates a note from the initial diatonic pattern, thus ending with the tonic note of the scale. This sequence is first played by the Marimba as a theme for subsequent variations based on the same diminutive structure. Heterophonic techniques—the doubling of selected notes of the series to create new melodies out of the original line—are employed throughout.
