In a game of Chapteh, players kick a feathered shuttlecock continuously to keep it in the air for as long as possible. Players begin the game by dropping the chapteh or throwing it upwards. To keep the chapteh airborne, players typically kick it with their heel, foot, or knee, but are not allowed to touch the chapteh with their hands. The various motions and sounds in a game of chapteh are depicted in this piece through a wide range of playing techniques. Harmonic arpeggios, glissandi, and ricochet bowings sonically depict the chapteh soaring through the air and falling. The extensive use of pizzicato reflects the bouncing motion of the chapteh, and also evokes the sounds of kicking the chapteh and the chapteh’s eventual landing on the ground.
This work was commissioned as the set piece for the National Piano and Violin Competition 2021 (Violin Artist Category).
