A
sweet, melodic, light
bossa nova - with a bite!
Melbourne Walk-Up was
inspired by the
composer's visit to
Melbourne, Australia,
where, in the absence of
an elevator in his hotel,
he had to trek up the
stairs with all of his
luggage. Sorenson says: I
composed this melody the
following day, as I
rested my sore back.
Flexible orchestration
allows it to be played by
as few as 9 players.
Additionally, everyone in
the ensemble has an
opportunity to improvise
in the open solo section,
and the set includes two
suggested solos and a CD
with a solo practice
track, to facilitate
successful
improvisation.
