Description

Three movements for ten brass. ‘Opposing Cannon’ (which is a bigged-up version of the first movement of Little Suite for Trumpet and Trombone), ‘The Dove’ (a flugel solo) and ‘Crossfire’. Seven minutes the lot, and not too hard. Crossfire takes a bit of thinking about in places but it’s all good stuff. Flugel players won’t thank me for the early trills in the 2nd movement, but the player I wrote it for, the brilliant Henry Lowther, just played them without any fuss or apparent difficulty. Which I was so grateful for.
