Description:
*Evensong* for tuba and electronics was composed in 1995 for tuba player Scott Mendoker. The title refers to the Anglican church service of the same name and evokes a contemplative and reverent atmosphere. The work presents the tuba in a serious and lyrical manner, celebrating the instrument’s beauty and expressive depth. The electronic accompaniment evolves over time as motivic material is developed into counter-melodies to the tuba part. The overall aesthetic is meditative and introspective, inviting listeners to quiet reflection. An important work in the contemporary tuba repertoire.
