Daughtrey-Spitfire (SP)-V/M/EU - Product Information
Spitfire by Nathan Daughtrey is a duet for euphonium and keyboard percussion instruments. This duet requires one player on 4.5 octave vibraphone and 5 octave marimba. Spitfire was inspired by the British fighter planes of the same name used by the Royal Air Force and several other countries during World War II. Designed as a short-range, high-performance interceptor aircraft, the Supermarine Spitfire was one of the fastest planes in service during the war. The quick moto perpetuo nature of the composition was an attempt to capture the speed and excitement of this historic plane. The word spitfire is also used to describe a quick-tempered or highly excitable person, which is also appropriate. Duration: 7 minutes
