Warrior for Euphonium and Electronics

Warrior is a single-movement work broken up into several contrasting sections. There are two main melodic ideas that occur throughout the piece: one lyrical and one rhythmic and aggressive. These ideas are in constant battle throughout the piece and are present in both the euphonium and the electronics. The electronics serve as both accompaniment and another performer. Some sections of the piece are recorded and then manipulated by the electronics and played back as new material. The sounds heard in the electronics are synthesizers, pre-recorded tuba sounds, and live-processed euphonium. 

This piece is performed using MAX/MSP.
