Description:
Composed for trumpet, electric guitar (with volume pedal) and ensemble, Tyshawn Sorey's For Bill Dixon and A. Spencer Barefield was commissioned by the Louisville Orchestra for a world premiere on March 9, 2019, with Teddy Abrams conducting. Ansyn Banks and Craig Wagner premiered the solo parts for trumpet and guitar, which nod toward the pair of experimental jazz musicians who inspired this contemplative, 11-minute work: A. Spencer Barefield, guitarist, and the late trumpeter Bill Dixon. This score is published as part of the Peters Contemporary Library and includes performance notes from the composer. Solo and orchestral parts are available for rental.
