Composed by Jim Fieldhouse. Contemporary,Jazz. Score and parts. 46 pages. Nefarious Music Publications #5988953. Published by Nefarious Music Publications (A0.875880).A fiery tour de force for euphonium ensemble. Blaze was written by Jim Fieldhouse as a personal composition challenge during the coronavirus lockdown of 2020. The piece came about from a desire to contribute to the contemporary euphonium repertoire and a need for some material for the composer to practice while the UK's brass bands were on pause due to Covid-19. This piece means business! It starts with a bang and is definitely not for the faint hearted. Much of the material centres around repeated semiquavers and requires razor sharp precision to bring it off the page. The relentless melodic lines are laid over funk influenced grooves and driving bass riffs. Playing with good time and feel are really important for switching between the more traditional brass band style and the all out jazz funk sections. While the euphonium 1 part is predominantly a high register part and euphonium 4 is very much the bass of the quartet, all four parts present their own challenges of virtuosic technique, range and stamina.Parts included: Full Score. Euphonium 1, Euphonium 2, Euphonium 3, Euphonium 4. (All parts are provided in both Bb Treble Clef and Bass Clef Concert Pitch)Difficulty rating Advanced.
