Description:
The thrills of downhill skiing inspired Carter Pann’s SLALOM, originally a multi-prize winning orchestral work, and well-loved in the composer’s own wind ensemble scoring. This tone poem flashes through sections including “First Run,” “Open Meadow, Champagne Powder,” “Straight Down, Tuck,” and “On One Ski, Gyrating.” Pann’s program note explains, “The work is performed at a severe tempo throughout, showcasing the wind ensemble’s volatility and endurance. The work is presented as a collection of scenes and events one might come by on the slopes. In this way SLALOM shares its programmatic feature with that of Richard Strauss’ Alpine Symphony.
