Defying the Machine – Concert Band – Score
Defying the Machine contrasts relentless mechanised efficiency with the human value of craftsmanship. Driving rhythms and metallic textures confront warmer, more expressive colours.
Musical shape and preparation
The score allows the relationship between parts to be followed when planning rehearsal work. This opposition becomes the work's musical engine. The ensemble can bring the difference between mechanical precision and living phrasing into focus, giving the dramatic idea an audible shape.
