Description
Song Book, Vol. 3 by Ivan Trevino is scored for wind quintet and percussion soloist, Commissioned by the award winning quintet, WindSync. This collection features four pieces written as musical thank-you's for artists who have inspired Trevino.
Byrne was written in the spirit of David Byrne and Talking Heads. As is the case with much of David's music, Byrne is dancy and quirky, with rhythmic grooves and riffs at the forefront of the music. Thom was written with Thom Yorke in mind. He's a soulfully gifted singer / songwriter who can take a simple motive and craft it into something beautiful. St. Annie was written with Annie Clark in mind. She's a breath of fresh air for Ivan and one of my favorite artists. While her project, St. Vincent, is known for a wild stage show, some of my favorite Annie songs are the ones that are stripped down to minimal instrumentation and presentation. I hope this moment in the collection gives listeners a chance to breathe, as Annie's music does for Ivan. To end the song book, Ivan wanted to write something hopeful. Written in the spirit of Jónsi Birgisson and his band, Sigur Rós, Jónsi threads elements of his musical language with his own percussive way of thinking. Perhaps if Jónsi became a percussionist, he might write something that sounds kind of like this.
WindSync and Trevino premiered Song Book, Vol. 3 in Houston, TX at Miller Outdoor Theatre on September 29, 2018. Thanks to Kara, Anni, Emily, Julian and Garrett for helping bring this music to life.
