Third prize winner in the 2000 PAS Composition Contest, ‘Isorhythmic Concerto’ is scored for the three families of non-pitched percussion; wood, metal and skins. Using a reasonably compact set-up, the piece is dramatic and virtuosic, displaying the skills, musicianship and timbral control of the multiple percussionists. An exciting cadenza climax es the work, followed by a surprising diminuendo ending. This is a real stunner of a piece, excellent for concerto competitions and recitals. Wind ensemble parts available on rental from Studio 4 Music.
