Aberrations by Anthony Granata is an exciting contemporary work with constant deviation of time signature, rhythmic intensity, modern harmonies, and variety of counterpoint. The title refers to the frequent changes of the time signature, requiring musicians to move in and out of 6/8, 3/4, and 4/4. The double fugue and abundance of contrapuntal interplay make this a thrilling and challenging piece for your advanced orchestras. Students will love the driving accented A minor motif, the layered rich legato countermelodies, and the forceful coda.
