BIG
RIFF is a new work by
John Frith for 8-part
Trombone Ensemble. It was
written as the opening
Anthem for Trombonanza
2017, which is a festival
takes place annually in
the town of Santa Fe,
Argentina.
Mr. Frith
was commissioned to
compose this work to open
the Festival.
The
music is about 5 minutes
in length and features
strong Latin rhythms
throughout. The work
builds and builds as it
adds layers of
complexities including a
jazz solo for one of the
players.
The all the
middle parts are playable
by intermediate
performers. Part 1 can be
performed on alto or
tenor and goes up to high
f's. Part 8 is quite
low.
The work ends in
a big climax after
building up throughout.
Very fun work to perform
with a massed group.
