Score

Rondo caprice : for wind orchestra / Mark Grandison.

Library shelf no. Q 784.8/GRA 3 [Available for loan]

Work Overview

Rondo Caprice is the fourth and final movement from the composer's 'Sinfonietta', originally commissioned for Youth Orchestra by the Sydney Symphony Youth Orchestra. It was subsequently rearranged for Wind Orchestra in 2007.

The work was to be conceived in neo-classical style. This is reflected in its marriage of classical forms, clear textures and simple rhythmic motifs, with a more dissonant harmonic language, including the use of chromaticism, polychords and modes.
