Terra Overture for orchestra, Op. 51

I will occasionally livestream myself composing (at twitch.tv/lungfish3000), allowing my viewers to commission mini-pieces and songs. I felt this piece, initially titled Terra and Raspy’s Dynamic Adventure after the two contributors who made this composition possible (known by the handles TerraBite__ and xxRaspy), could be expanded into a jaunty, low-stress concert opener or post-intermission item. It prominently features the percussion section.

This piece requires the following forces:

piccolo

2 flutes

2 oboes

2 clarinets

2 bassoons

4 horns

2 trumpets

2 trombones

1 tuba

timpani

percussion*

violin

viola

cello

contrabass

*this packet contains two versions of the score with alternative treatments of the percussion section

Version 1: 7 players (crash cymbals, triangle, woodblock, claves, toms-toms, snare drum, bass drum)

Version 2: 3 players (crash cymbals, triangle, temple blocks, drum set)
