Family Holmes Videos weaves together the stories of the two sides of my family coming together through the double concerto grosso format, ideally with accompanying film. The clarinet, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, violin, cello or contrabass, and timpani represent my father’s side of the family coming from England, while the glockenspiel, vibraphone, chimes, and other metallophones (triangle, bell tree, etc.) represent my mother’s side coming from Germany. The piece makes heavy use of aleatoric and improvised sections with sufficient scaffoling to be a good introduction to these techniques. The score’s flexibility also provides ample opportunities throughout for the director help the ensemble realign with the film if necessary. Originally composed for a community orchestra, almost any level of orchestra would enjoy this unique opportunity to help a film come to life for a live audience, provided the members of the soli groups are strong musicians!
