Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1407989 Composed by Robert A. Howard. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Thriller. 5 pages. Robert A. Howard #990552. Published by Robert A. Howard (A0.1407989). Ghost takes its title from the art work by Ron Mueck (1998), which is in the collection of the Tate Gallery, Liverpool. Mueck's Ghost is an extraordinarily realistic, larger-than-life-sized mannequin. This model is of a young lady in a swimsuit, with exceptionally long legs and an embarrassed glance about her face. This musical work attempts to capture the ghostly, solitary and threatening qualities of the work. It is flexibly scored, in four instrumental parts, and there are opportunities for 'solo' and 'tutti' playing. Character is depicted in a four note motif (heard at the beginning), which is transformed across five highly contrasting sections. There is a significant cadenza-like solo passage, for a treble clef instrument. Ghost was commissioned by COMA for the Autumn Residency at Tate Liverpool in October 2002. Note: this document is the score only. The full set of parts (with score) are available via a search of the COMA Music Library.Duration: 6 minutes.Registered with PRS (Performing Rights Society, UK).Composer's website: www.roberthowardmusic.co.uk
