Six of the string players double on castanets, as loud and piercing as possible.
Each string of each instrument is retuned to a different pitch according to an elaborate chart provided in the preface. For example: the A-strings of the 8 violins and 4 violas are given precise retuned pitches ranging from 416 hertz to 465 hertz (or vibrations per second).
