Description:
Having written the piece 'Condor Canyon' for trombone and brass quintet, it was a great challange and joy for me to get the commission of a similar piece, specifically for the brilliant trumpeter Ole-Edward Antonsen and the phenomenal Spanish Brass. The fact that I was asked to include myself in the piece felt of course only as a bonus. To find a name for such a piece was not easy, but after listening through the piece in my brain time after time it the name suddenly came up in my head: 'Groundhog Mamba'... A mamba is a very beautiful green snake that lives in south of afrika, and a groundhog is a strange and quite ugly animal that in america even has been honored with a special day called 'Groundhog Day'. I do not know if you feel any wiser from this programme note, but I do really hope that you will enjoy listening to what I have written for the wonderful virtuosic musicians Ole-Edward Antonsen and Spanish Brass...I will try to keep up with them myself... Christian Lindberg
