Tuba, Tuba Solo - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1706402
Composed by Anthony Gilbert. This edition: pdf. 21st Century. Individual part. 7 pages. UYMP #1270204. Published by UYMP (A0.1706402).
The magnificent Kauri tree is once again fairly common in much of New Zealand, though due to land clearance and logging in the early years of British colonisation really ancient examples are quite rare. This piece celebrates the survival of one such, which has perched on the edge of an escarpment in the Waitakere Ranges of North Island for two-thirds of the last millennium witnessing some dramatic changes in the fortunes of the rainforest below it.
The form of the piece reflects that of the tree in question, and its techniques are comparable in age: an inexorable isorhythm whose long values gradually diminish, supporting a spreading, sprawling chant decorated but never overwhelmed by numerous frond-like accretions. Every now and again bell-like sounds and phrases curiously reminiscent of some distant Parliament emerge and disappear, leaving the chant ultimately triumphant.
Kauri was commissioned by James Gourlay, and completed in October 2002. He gave the first performance at the Clothworkers Centenary hall, Leeds, in March 2003.
This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global
