Sheet Music: Scoremutinies / Joseph Franklin.by Joseph Franklin (2024)

Product details
<mutinies> is an orchestral adaptation of a solo contrabass guitar work that I released in early 2024 titled, a thousand tiny mutinies. This work is part of an ongoing project of translating my solo bass practice across other bodies, instruments, and ensembles.
The composition draws its narrative thread from 1829 Cyprus Mutiny at Recherche Bay, where convicts took control of the brig Cyprus, and set sail. The mutineers passed through New Zealand and the Chatham Islands before landing in the hostile Japanese waters, and on to China where the Cyprus was abandoned. The mutineers found their way back to London, where two of them were hanged - the last men to be hanged for piracy in Britain. The infamous captain, William Swallow and one other, were returned to Hobart.
