Description
Feature the bright and lyrical voice of the solo cornet with Darrol Barry’s poetic Sonnet 18. Inspired by Shakespeare’s famous lines, this work is a masterclass in romantic melodic writing, requiring the soloist to play with a singing tone and nuanced phrasing. Barry provides a band accompaniment that is both supportive and colorfully orchestrated, creating a sense of timeless elegance and emotional depth. The piece focuses on melodic beauty rather than overt technical display, providing an exquisite choice for a solo feature that celebrates the expressive potential of the cornet. It is a moment of pure, lyrical charm that will resonate with any audience.
