Program Notes
Originally scored for tuba and piano, Turbulence was commissioned by Dr. Kent Eshelman (tuba professor at Baylor University) and the Baylor University School of Music. Just under six minutes, Turbulence is a tour de force of virtuosic playing, both by the soloist and the ensemble. The piece features a relentless, driving eighth-note pulse that is unwavering from beginning to end, broken up only by the frequent meter changes.
