Product Description

Abstract is a five-minute work composed for woodwind quintet. It features a nine-tone "Additive Scale" (essentially the chromatic scale without the B minor triad). This scale allows for free flowing, chromatic melodies; advanced harmonies; and a sense of grounding due to its asymmetry. The piece, though free and atonal, contains many suggestions of various tonalities and cadences. The form as a whole is ABA, with the B section being the bulk of the work, developing from theme to theme and growing in intensity towards the climax.

The PDF contains the score as well as all of the parts. An english horn is used instead of a french horn.
