Ouaricon Songs Vol. 2
2015 · baritone, bass clarinet, trumpet, and trombone
Duration: 14'
Chamber, Vocal
The second volume of Ouaricon Songs was written for Loadbang Ensemble and is scored for baritone, trumpet, trombone, and bass clarinet. The first volume was written for string quartet and baritone. The word, Ouaricon, comes from the name of a river on a 1715 French map of the Eastern Canada and may be the origin of the Oregon County, and later State, name. I invoke the word here to suggest a possible alternate history of the North American land mass by recombining, remixing, and extrapolating from traditions of art and music.
