Brass Quintet
SKU: CY.CC3292
Composed by Elizabeth Raum. Contemporary 20th century Canadian. Score and parts. Cherry Classics #CC3292. Published by Cherry Classics (CY.CC3292).Elizabeth Raum's Quintet for Brass was written in 1980 and is just now being published for the first time. The work is in four movements: 1. Prelude, 2. Scherzo and Blues, 3. Passacaglia and Fugue and 4. Rondo. It is written for traditional brass quintet with Trumpets in B-flat for advanced performers and is about 15 minutes in length.
The music is very expressive and tonal. Below is a brief description of the work by the composer, Elizabeth Raum.
This piece is very much based on various musical forms. The Prelude has opened many a musical work from Baroque to the present. Then follows Scherzo and Blues, a light hearted bonbon moving into a lazy blues. Next is pure Baroque starting with a Passacaglia followed by a Fugue based on the Passacaglia progression. And finally finishing up with the Rondo, in a major key, light-hearted, canonic in places, with a feeling of the evolution of musical form.
Below is a great recording of it by members of the Regina Symphony Orchestra.
