バストロンボーン奏者山口隼士氏よりの委嘱で2005年に作曲。
初演は東京藝術大学奏楽堂にて。
2022年にアメリカのアーカンソー州で行われた「国際トロンボーンフェスティバル」のComposer Workshop参加作品。

通常のバストロンボーンの音域を超えて書かれており、フラッタータンギングやリップトリル等、非常に難易度の高い作品。

立原勇作曲

Composed in 2005 by Isamu Tachihara, this work was commissioned by renowned bass trombonist Shunji Yamaguchi.
The piece received its premiere at Sogakudo Concert Hall, Tokyo University of the Arts.
In 2022, it was featured in the Composer Workshop at the International Trombone Festival held in Arkansas, USA.

This composition is highly demanding, extending beyond the conventional range of the bass trombone and incorporating advanced techniques such as flutter tonguing and lip trills. It challenges the performer both technically and musically, showcasing the expressive potential of the instrument.
