Solo Guitar - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1113241 By Apostolos Paraskevas. By Apostolos Paraskevas. 20th Century,Classical,Contemporary,New Age. Individual part. 7 pages. Silver Sickle Publications #715190. Published by Silver Sickle Publications (A0.1113241). The Chase Dance was commissioned by David Starobin for his Grammy nominated recording Newdance (Bridge 9084). The material of the work derives from a combination of cultural influences (Balkan music) and contemporary techniques that in a combination of the old and the new approaches create a new type of exciting dance. Alternating 5/8, 6/8 and 9/8 meters increase the tension of the piece as well the nerves of the performer as the end approaches. The work ends almost abruptly as chases usually do. It has been recorded by the composer as well in Visions of Azure and by Zoran Dukic in Balkan Muses. Duration 2 minutes and 15 seconds.
