KINETIC CAT

solo bass trombone (about 4 minutes)

Kinetic Cat (2023) is a short work for solo bass trombone that opens sounding low brash notes, which are then interspersed with more delicate figures in the higher registers. The second section contrasts with more gentle and restrained dance-like music. Following a return to the opening material, the music becomes more direct, with the trombone sounding like bells pealing through the mountainside, which then leads back to a final restatement of the opening material. Kinetic Cat is written for bass trombonist Jonathan Warburton.

Score will be available for purchase shortly. Please email me at paul@paulosterfield.com, and I will let you know when it is available.
