Savouring a Sigh
piece for brass quintet
Approx. 7 minute duration
Advanced Difficulty
Composed 2016
“This short and somewhat impressionistic piece aims to explore the sonic capabilities of a brass quintet and to emulate very natural sounds such as the human voice, while exploring musical subjects such as melodic contour, metric modulation, balance & orchestration, and a post-modernist combination of different stylistic material. The two themes of this piece are drawn from the sounds of someone sighing calmly, and of someone chuckling and laughing.”
