Description
Brass quintet (2 trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba) - Grade 4-5
SKU: ET.ENS145
Composed by Zdenek Lukas. Contemporary. Composed 1990. Duration 10'30. Editions BIM #ENS145. Published by Editions BIM (ET.ENS145).ISBN 9790207010902.
The four untitled movements of this work exhibit all of the same characteristics: within archaic Renaissance polyphonic musical structures (for instance, in the style - but not the music - of the opening Toccata of Monteverdi’s Orpheo), Zdenek Lukas employs the very deliberate melodic and rhythmic constructions which he has developed in his writing, presenting a very personal and strong artistic identity.
The repeated polyphonic lines of each brass instrument evolve into strong underlying feelings of tension, even as they are obscured by a nice cantabile.
