Composed by Robert A. Howard. This edition: audio, pdf. 20th Century, Chamber, Classical, Contemporary, Contest, Festival. 47 pages. Robert A. Howard #1054775. Published by Robert A. Howard (A0.1477352).This grandiose, ceremonial piece is for a wind ensemble of woodwind and brass, with piano and 2 percussionists. The work takes a fragment from a theme by Bela Bartok, from his 1911 one-act opera Duke Bluebeard's Castle, and is a set of free variations, like a fantasy, upon this theme, within a vague ternary structure. The whole ensemble is often treated quite percussively, exploring angular snap rhythms, as well as inversions and symmetry of pitch. One percussionist plays marimba, while the other plays snare drum. The piece takes Bartok's motif as a starting point, before developing beyond this idiom. The work remains accessible to audiences, and can be played by more advanced performers. This PDF document is complete for performance, with the full score provided, followed by each instrumental part.
