Newburyport Sonata – Tuba and Piano

Description

Amid his beloved catalog of music for low brass, Newburyport Sonata is Eric Ewazen’s first recital work tuba. The composer’s preface tells us, “This work was written during the year of Covid quarantine, and it reflects the strong emotions of the time.The final movement is full of energy and a return to life!There is almost a march-like feel to the music, with a lively and even playful rhythm as the tuba lines are bold, string, and ultimately energetic and exciting.” The work is also available for tuba and string quartet.
