Composer John
Frith has written a new
solo virtuosic work for
Bass Trombone with Piano
accompaniment of about 3
minutes in length. Read
below to see what his
thoughts are about his
composition for Jonathan
Warburton. I have
written a number of
pieces (over many years)
for Jonathan Warburton
who also commissioned
‘Sons of
Thunder' in 2015. Jon's
gift for musical
‘acrobatics
' gave me the idea of
creating a short,
high-energy work that
would give vent to his
exceptional range and
flexibility. The central
section is muted and
relatively calm but it is
not long before the music
builds and the opening
material returns. A solo
cadenza creates a welcome
calm interlude before the
storm gathers once again
as the piece builds to a
momentous fortissimo
before grinding to a
thunderous
halt! ‘
Sons of Thunder' is the
nickname given by Jesus
to the apostles James and
John, possibly reflecting
their lively
characters…
…I'm
guessing that theirs were
not too unlike Jonathan's
ebullient
personality!.
