Description
American Frontier for string orchestra was written by Joshua Reznicow utilizing various ensemble configurations from within the string orchestra. Solo lines, quartet, quintet, and sectional soli all help to make up the overall design and orchestral colors of the piece. As a juxtaposition to this, large divisi string writing is utilized to help balance the smaller ensemble writing within the score. The work is inspired by images of a western frontier—one filled with large fields, mountains, and sunsets, as well as subtle character-filled details that have a forward and fast-moving feel. (5:00)
