Vinicunca for brass quintet (2021)
ca. 13-14 minutes
Some of my best friends at the Crane School of Music were members of the Potsdam Brass Quintet. Over the years I'd written not only two quintets, but numerous other pieces for various members of the group. In 2021, during the Covid pandemic, I wrote over a dozen works, including this third piece for the quintet.
Vinicunca, also known as Rainbow Mountain, is a mountain in Peru with an amazing array of colors. The title refers especially to the first of the two movements, where I explore a range of timbres and combinations within the quintet.
