Embarkation
Dillon, L

Lawrence Dillon's Embarkation, for flute, horn, and piano. In a single large movement and full of Dillon's signature colorful, innate soulfulness, Embarkation marks an excellent addition to the flute and horn repertoire.

From the composer:

The piece is in four sections ABAB. The A section has a martial air, which really upset me at the time I was writing it, because I ve never written anything remotely military-sounding, and I certainly had no interest in doing so now. But that was the way the music was coming out, so I went with it. In retrospect, I realize that in February 2004 I was like everyone else much concerned with what was going on in Iraq. Great thing, and hard thing, about writing music: you can t hide from what you are really thinking. And sometimes it comes out in unexpected ways.

The B section is a complete contrast: static, ruminative and pastoral. When the A returns, it is even more aggressive than before, then the return of the B section is even more lyrical and peaceful than its earlier incarnation.

For advanced players. Includes score and parts.
