Dialogue (for Brass Ensemble)
Publisher Desc.
"Dialogue (for Brass Ensemble)"
from American composer P. F. Strohm, is an up-tempo, jazz-based work
written for a 10-part ensemble, comprised of two brass quintets, one using
tuba and one using bass trombone. The antiphonal scoring with the two
quintets makes the work ideal for brass sections looking for a hard-hitting
showpiece. It employs two quintet groupings to create straight-ahead,
ensemble energy. The two quintets trade off melodic and rhythmic figures
throughout the opening. In the mid-section,
two trumpets and the soprano sax trade solo lines, then combine in a
riveting climax. The two quintets then trade tight, challenging phrases as the piece rockets to a big tutti
ending. "Dialogue" is an
exciting work for contest or concert, and has a Medium-Advanced level of
difficulty. Total performance time is
4:00. Member, ASCAP.
