Some years ago, I wanted to discover the flute and wrote SECOND CONCERTO for flute and percussion in five movements. Since then, the piece has been quite popular worldwide and when I was asked to write a new piece for the very talent Louise Pollock, principal trombonist with the Gothenburg Opera in Sweden, I took my chance. The structure of the concerto has the same as the concerto for flute. Five movements in different styles with different techniques for the solo instrument. 1st movement has a challenging solo part with an ostinato in percussion (this time I found inspiration from American composer Gene Koshinski). 2nd mvt is built on the favorite chord I often use in my music (for example in KINKAKU-JI for alto flute and vibraphone). 3rd mvt has the humor in focus – it’s a game of cat and mouse in rhythms. In the 4th mvt I wanted to write beautiful and sad for trombone with percussion effects. For me the sound of a trombone also reminds me about great brass musicians like Nils Landgren and the soul group Earth Wind and Fire and in the 5th mvt you will get some of this funky groove.
