Thanks for linking this, I had missed the premiere, and I'm very happy to have seen this.

I am glad you posted as I missed the premiere as well. The playing was great, but the piece didn't do anything for me. I am sure others will have varying opinions...

Great playing - Roylance has a huge, colorful mellow sound :tuba:
But the music is a bit too 1970s atonal for my tastes. There are some nice sections though and it's nice we have another piece written for our instrument.

I got to see this live. It was epic.
