Tangents is an original work composed especially for Symphonia that was premiered by the ensemble in 2000 in Regina, Canada. An upbeat driving work in the style of an overture, Tangents wonderfully explores the unexpected colors and lyricism of the tuba-euphonium ensemble. Barnes' varied harmonic palette, use of color, and melodic gift results in a composition that is not only an audience favorite, but also one that is a major addition to the repertory of this genre. |
