Brightside

By Frank Millward

Regular price $120.00 Sale

Five pieces from the full work for Soprano and Baritone, Choir and Chamber Orchestra
 
In Brightside a poem, written to a pre-prepared scenario, was interpreted using music, song, dialogue and movement. Synthersising these so that no one form dominates another, Brightside develops themes of blind optimism, obstructive cynicism and misguided treachery. This work was originally performed by Lumiere and Son Theatre Company London.
 
The score presented here is a re-orchestration of the original score that was performed as an electro-acoustic piece, disseminated through an immersive quadraphonic system. This re-orchestration is ideally suited to an acoustic concert presentational format and works well in accompanying a solo or small ensemble dance component.
 
Approximately 18’00” in duration there are five major sections scored for Choir (or Quartet with microphones) S.A.T.B. and Chamber Orchestra consisting of Violin 1, Violin 2, Viola, ‘Cello, Double Bass, Trumpet Bb, Horn in F, Bass Trombone, Keys and Percussion.
 
The sections of the work are:
1.    No One Knows How Fine They Are – Duration 4’ 32”
2.    Ella – Duration 3’ 46”
3.    Your Will Never Waivers – Duration 3’ 30”
4.    All I Want – Duration 2’ 00”
5.    Stella – Duration 3’ 36”
 
There are opportunities for solo parts in Ella (Soprano) and in All I Want (Baritone), however these can also be sung by combined ensemble voices. The poem ‘Pale fingers…’ by David Gale is a part of the full poem of the work and can be spoken to fit within the section Ella. It is offered as a performance choice if spoken word were to be included in the performance.

Bromeliad -The Epic (orchestral)

By Graeme Denniss

Regular price $120.00 Sale

Concertino for solo horn and chamber orchestra, c.12'40

The epic describes a quest where the Horn is the hero of the story, hearing the call and responding to the challenge, as a hero must, although not without moments of trepidation.  After overcoming moments of self-doubt, our hero sets forth resolutely to seek the foe, to the music of a march.  Battle is joined in 12/8 and our hero emerges triumphant, but not without injury.  After withdrawing from the fray to heal, the eventual homecoming results in a hero’s welcome.  Awarded the highest honours by a grateful nation, a rapturous reunion occurs and they celebrate the victory together.

        Buoyant

        By Benjamin Loomes

        Regular price $60.00 Sale

        Short orchestral work

        "I wish I were someone who truly could fly, but was dreaming I could walk." When I fly in my dreams, when I kick off the ground in just the right way I can 'balance' at the top of the leap and slide along weightless. This orchestral piece seeks to suspend my return to earth for as long as possible, remaining buoyant, free, and floating. An ideal work for senior high school orchestral players or professional musicians alike.
        Composed 2014

                Concerto per Pianoforte e Orchestra

                By Meta Overman

                Regular price $250.00 Sale

                Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in three movements, c.25'00

                In 1942 Overman wrote the piano concerto which was performed at the time by the Rotterdam Philharmonic orchestra and Marinus Flipse as piano soloist. Unfortunately, due to the war and the occupation of Rotterdam by the Nazis the orchestral parts, including the piano part, were lost and all that has been available since was a handwritten full score that had been retained in the Overman archives in the Music Library at UWA.
                The work is in three movements and is written at times like a duet in that the piano is one instrument and the orchestra, as a whole, is the other and the two alternate with the main melodic and harmonic motives.  

                The manuscripts have been researched and edited by Jeanell Carrigan, 2020.
