Las Estrellas En Tus Ojos

"Las Estrellas En Tus Ojos" from the CD SAZZUNK, is a 3-movement composition beginning with a fugue. The 5 bar phrase, using 5 trumpets, make their individual entrances symbolizing many evening stars. A new star appears every 5th bar until the eyes of the skies drench the night with light. The orchestral version of the fugue uses the full compliment of strings, bassoon and more. Wrapping up the Fugue is a 4 octave trumpet solo line that explodes onto the scene and pulls you uncontrollably into the Bolero. This wonderfully melodic dance is rich in authentic character and attitude augmented by the entire orchestra with lines and elements that support the simple, yearning, lifting lines for the soloist. El Festiva is the reward for being a great listener! This tropical up-tempo 3rd movement lives up to its title. Rhythms and lines that push and pull your creative ear to a fun, party place - a festival!
