Description
Tony Osborne - Sonnet for a Summer’s Day for soprano & double bass quartet
Sonnet for a Summer’s Day was commissioned in 1998 for Bass-Fest ’98 by David Heyes and is a rare, beautiful and evocative piece for soprano and double bass quartet. A repeated rhythmic figure, played unison, creates unity and cohesion alongside gently changing jazz-inspired harmonies, above which the soprano weaves wonderfully lyrical and melodic vocal lines.
