Product Details


Product Description

The work is in four movements and is scored for 2011/1000 tymp/harp/celesta/strings and lasts aproximately 17 minutes. The work is more in the style of a "concerto grosso" than that of a virtuosic concerto, with the guitars frequently used in a solo group with the harp and celesta, which adds a very interesting orchestral colour. The writing is varied, ranging from a medieval "cantilène" style in the slow movement to free atonal sections in the second "Scherzo" movement and in the first movement. The work ends in a movement which sounds influenced by South American Popular music. Inspite of this apparent stylistic disparity, the composition remains extremely coherent and shows a great deal of energy and a kind of poetic strangeness. 

This is the reduction for two guitars and piano.  The orchestral score is available for sale.  The parts are on rental from the publisher
