Summary Extended Description   CMP 1118 Duet for oboe and percussion. Grade 6. Approx. duration: six minutes. Set consists of two performance scores. Based on the rhythms of the “baguala,” a type of folk music heard in northeastern Argentina, “Umbra Sonora” develops within the context of a timbric/sonorous complex made up by the oboe, timpani and Tam-Tam. The baguala rhythms emerges from the chords and melodies sung by the timpani in its low register. Both instrumentalists develop a rich palette of extended techniques on their instruments that bring to the work a constant variety of textures, and in doing so generate the sonorous threshold to which the title refers. Composed in 2009. For more by this composer... ... click here to go to Federico's composer page.
