Product Description

Divertissement was composed during 2005 for the Cadence Music Ensemble and rewritten in 2010 for Bret Pimentel, a virtuoso performer on multiple woodwinds. A divertissement is a multi-movement composition designed to divert, entertain or to amuse. There are six contrasting movements in this composition; Intrada, Nocturne, Waltz, Marche, Romanza, and Galop, each written for a different woodwind instrument. There are two versions of the Galop, one for piccolo and piano and the other where the performer switches between each of the woodwinds. Only the woodwind doubler version is included here. The piccolo and piano version is available for purchase separately under the title "Galop", The Intrada is energetic and playful with a lot of interplay between instruments. The Nocturne, being a night piece, is both lyrical and mysterious. The Waltz is in a flowing waltz tempo with occasional shifts away from three beats in the measure. The Marche is not a piece that would be used in a parade. It is a march that exists in the mind of a child who is playing with toy soldiers; therefore there is playfulness and humor that would not occur in a functional march. Lyrical lines and expressiveness are the predominating features of the Romanza. The piece comes to a rousing close with the Galop, which is a perpetual motion type of movement with a lot of rhythmic variety.
