For 7 Players. Composed by Tansy Davies. 5 or More; Masterworks; Mixed Instruments - Miscellaneous Ensemble; Solo Small Ensembles. Faber Edition. 20th Century; Masterwork. Score. Faber Music #12-0571538215. Published by Faber Music (AP.12-0571538215).ISBN 9780571538218. English.
Neon has been described as a gloriously offbeat scherzo (The Times) and as a septet rooted in Zappaesque raucousness (New York Times). It has all the hallmarks of Tansy Davies' unique style: angular, fragmented melodies that fall somewhere between Stravinsky and Captain Beefheart; infectious, syncopated rhythms brought to life by strange junk-yard percussion; it jolts and heaves like some strange, machine-like creature.
