Symphony No. 7 Two
Newman, Chris
About the work
The piece was notated as an open score, so that it could be orchestrated according to the available varying forces of an amateur orchestra for which it was intended (CoMA London Ensemble). This orchestration could include tuned percussion, but not untuned. I would appreciate, however, if the 3 parts could remain within their ‘own’ instrumental grouping as far as the register allows, as this will contribute to the greater delineation of sound.
The piece is dedicated to Chris Shurety.
