Laszlo
Dubrovay.
The
composer wrote this work
in 2004 for the Corpus
trombone quartet, to whom
it is dedicated. The
piece consists of a slow
and a fast section, both
in rondo form. Its
musical language makes
use of a great many new
elements of playing
technique, which provide
an excellent opportunity
for displaying the
fantastically virtuosic
capabilities of both the
new modes of sound
production and the
performers: they include
Wah-muted notes with
modulated tone colour,
harmonic-glissandi,
sequences of buzzing
notes sung into the
instrument,
valve-modulated harmonic
glissandi, rapid double-
and tripletongued
staccatos, and
flutter-tongued,
lip-trilled and buzzing
lip-vibrating notes. The
purpose: playful,
good-humoured
music-making, to exorcise
evil from our lives.
