Title NameCamera Oscura for Woodwind Quintet and Quartet of Strings
Marketing CopyComposed in honor of the 75th Anniversary of the Summer Music Camp for Can't-Get-Enough-Chamber-Music Aficionados, aka the Chamber Music Conference and Composers' Forum of the East, Camera Oscura explores musical kernels imbedded in the names of some of Donald Crockett's favorite composers in the rich history of chamber music, though the musical evocations are based on the names, not their styles. In addition to the noisy fanfares introduced by the traditional nonet (woodwind quintet, plus a quartet of strings: violin, viola, cello and bass), there are smaller combinations based on iconic pieces in the repertory, for example, oboe quartet, clarinet quintet, Schubert octet, woodwind quintet, string trio, etc. Movements: I. Fanfares, II. Songs, III. Scherzo, IV. Lament
InstrumentationFl (Picc), Ob (EH), Cl, Hn, Bsn, Vn, Va, Vc, DblBs
CommissionCommissioned by the Chamber Music Conference and Composers' Forum of the East for its 75th Anniversary Season, with the generous support of Tara Kazak and Fan Tao.
