Description

James Grant’s Seven Shards for Three Flutes is an arrangement of his Songs Without Words No. 4: Seven Shards for Trio d’anches (oboe, clarinet and bassoon). The 8’30” composition is a rondo of four developing refrains, interspersed with three episodes. The texture is contrapuntal and the tempo brisk throughout, while the musicians play various combinations of piccolo, flute, and alto flute. The brief shards are to be presented in succession, without significant pause. They are marked: Precision; Insistence; Ornamental; Agreement; Ragtime, sort of; Baroque, sort of; and Finale.

This version of the Seven Shards was commissioned by Whole Musician (www.WholeMusician.net): Meg Griffith, Megan Lanz, Christopher Lee, Rik Noyce, and Niall O’Riordan. It is dedicated with thanks to Meg, Megan, and Rik, who took it for its first spin.
