Additional Information

A difficult three movement work for Brass Septet. Composed for Tom Atkinson and the BBC Northern Brass Septet. This is a three movement work for Brass Septet. The work is difficult and demanding but ideal to demonstrate the virtuosity of players. The second movement with its slow moving harmonies brings a unique prospective of instrumental colour for the Brass ensemble. This work has had many performances in spite of the demands and technical ability required. Fantastic opening piece for a recital concert.
