Winner of the 2012 ASCAP Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composer award. An advanced-level original composition for 17-piece jazz ensemble. All reed parts are flute, clarinet, or bass clarinet– no saxophones. Trumpets utilize the warmth of 4 flugelhorns and there are many orchestration textures throughout. Harmony is modern and modal, featuring a gradually-building trombone solo that sends the piece into its climactic shout section. A lush, warm, challenging composition with lots of orchestral colors and sophisticated rhythms.
Debuted and recorded with the University of North Texas One O’Clock Lab Band on Lab 2012.
Instrumentation:
5 reeds (1st and 2nd flute, 1st and 2nd clarinet, bass clarinet)
8 brass (4 trumpets/flugelhorns, 3 trombones, bass trombone)
Rhythm Section (guitar, piano, acoustic bass, drum set)
