Tortus : for oboe, vibraphone, guitar and viola / Brendan Colbert.
Library shelf no. 785.5414/COL 1 [Available for loan]
Work Overview
By mid 2012, movements 1 and 4 had
been completed, but a series of other projects
(e.g. …like a Maelstrom :
double concerto for piano, trumpet and small orchestra)
kept me from finally completing
Tortus until May 2018. For oboe, vibraphone, guitar, and
viola, it is in six movements, of which '…in
Coils', 'Twist', 'Espiral', and 'Turn'
are eminently suitable for extraction
and performance as separate works in their own right.
