Composed by Michael Barrera. 20th Century,Contemporary. 39 pages. Michael Barrera #699736. Published by Michael Barrera (A0.1095770).Https://www.michaelbarreraflute.com/shop/p/tailwind-ocarina Program Notes Tailwind is a quick-moving piece that creates a buoyant soundscape of a swift breeze. Originally conceived with the imagery of mechanics and machinery in mind, it quickly became a piece more interested in the fleeting motion of wind. It is both carefree and energetic, like floating leaves in the spring air. This piece was commissioned by Shooting Star Ocarina, an international virtual ocarina ensemble established in the summer of 2020. Following the traditional instrumentation of the Italian ocarina septet, SSO recently expanded to an octet adding the massive contrabass in G ocarina to the ensemble and commissioned a few pieces as a result to feature this addition to the low range. Instrumentation Ocarina Octet consisting of - 1 Soprano C 1 Soprano G 1 Alto C 1 Alto G 1 Bass C 1 Bass G 1 Contrabass C 1 Contrabass G Ocarinas in G may be substituted for ocarinas in F as needed. Transposed parts are available upon request.
