Outburst!
Publisher Desc.
An outburst is defined as a sudden release of strong emotion or a sudden outbreak of a particular activity. With constantly shifting and asymmetric time signatures, syncopated rhythms, and extended polychords, Outburst! wildly moves and grooves throughout the ensemble. Two thematic ideas begin the piece. The first is a short motivic burst in 58 time that is immediately imitated. The second, introduced by solo saxophone, is jazzy and in a 3+3+2 rhythmic grouping. Abrupt shifts of dynamics and textures continue and eventually lead to a contrasting joyous lyrical theme. A short recapitulation leads to a loud and final outburst of sound and energy.
