About this work:
Homage to the glissando. The three trombones are “all worked up” and sliding every which way. There are even glissandi within glissandi. Meanwhile, the two clarinets do their best to rein in all this madness, while all the players try to work their way through the graphic notation. Bring your mutes for this unusual textural piece.
