HoUsE miX for tuba and orchestra
HoUsE miX was originally composed for tuba and electronics in September-October of 1995 at the request of tubist Jeffrey Funderburk. I later orchestrated this composition as a stand-alone piece and then also arranged the work for tuba and orchestra. This latter version has yet to be performed.
In borrowing materials and gestures from the language of 1990s techno dance music, I also sought to borrow one of its structural conceits: the sharp juxtaposition of diverse materials (represented by the mash-up of upper- and lower-case letters in the title).
A recording of the orchestra version alone may be heard here.
