Tangents (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Oare, Michael

The term "tangent" appears in geometry, art and language, and can describe lines, shapes or thoughts that connect or touch, but do not cross or overlap. In this exciting and creative work for young bands, Michael Oare uses contrasting marcato and legato themes along with an underlying rhythmic ostinate to create an unsettled yet dramatic sense of "going off on a tangent."
