| This work by Swiss composer Oliver Waespi was one of the highlights at the “Eidgenössische Musikfest 2006” in Lucerne. The piece opens with a festive fanfare featuring the brass section principally. The mood changes to a funk passage which develops modestly and grows into a James Brown-like groove. It also includes an ad libitum drum solo. Further to a slow blues which lends a calmer feel, the piece culminates with fanfare and funk styles interwoven leading to a striking combination! This work is highly recommended for concert programmes but is also a spectacular, unconventional choice for a competition. |
