Between Notation and Performance: An Analysis of Manfred Stahnke’s Beating

Guillem Escorihuela and Antonio Marin are pleased to announce the publication (in Spanish!) of a new article devoted to Beating, the trombone trio by Manfred Stahnke (*1951). Published in Instrumentum, 6, 72-94, ISSN: 2792-5560, 2026.

The article offers a detailed examination of Stahnke’s notation system and presents a structural and interpretative analysis of the work. Its primary aim is to function as a guide for the Interpreter.

As a complementary reference, here you can find a recording from 2017, featuring trombonists Maria Cofan, Adrian Albaladejo and Antonio Marin.

In addition, a new section on Antonio Marin’s website provides an updated list of his articles and publications.
