Quinn Mason - A Joyous Trilogy (John Axelrod; Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della RAI)

Performers:
Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della RAI
Trombone soloist in 2nd movement: Joseph Burnam
John Axelrod, Conductor
Live June 17, 2021; Auditorium RAI Arturo Toscanini (European Premiere)
"For 'A Joyous Trilogy', the composer writes that he “wanted to create a composition that was the very embodiment of happiness and cheerfulness, an accessible work that would put any listener in a good mood. The first movement, ‘Running’ is so called because of its always-moving and seemingly never-waning energy that keeps going and going. The second, ‘Reflection,’ is a gentle and introspective meditation featuring a solo trombone. The third, ’Renewal,’ picks the energy back up, but a little more spirited and zestful this time, and keeps it going to the very end, complete with dynamic and vibrant interplay between all the orchestral sections."
Quinn Mason has dedicated this work to “Will White, a friend and mentor for many years now, and one of the most joyous people I know!”
-Jeff Eldridge

We (Anchorage Symphony) are playing this next week. We just had our first rehearsal. You and I seem to share a lot of the same tastes in our inspirations-love the bits of Resphighi like flourishes and the Don Davis Matrix chord mobiles. We will try to play it well!
