Fireworks - John Frith - Tuba Euphonium Quartet (BTQ Series) |
||
|
Fireworks was commissioned by The British Tuba Quartet in 1995.
The challenge was to write an exciting piece for a quartet of tubas - a new combinations of instruments for me - consisting of two Euphoniums (tenor tubas) an Eb Tuba and a Bb Tuba. Fireworks begins and ends with fire-crackers from a live recording of a bonfire night gathering complete with rocket sounds in the foreground (on my request)the instruments imitate these 'explosive' sounds and this fine recording was the result. The music is published by Studio Music.
