Ayala - Alborada Taciturna

Alborada Taciturna was composed to create original repertoire for the euphonium in the style of traditional Colombian music, and is written in the rhythm of currulao, a traditional genre from the Pacific coast of Colombia. The composition presents an introduction of the solo euphonium with a mysterious atmosphere that gives the piece its name and that is inspired by the climate of the city of Tunja where it was composed. Then, together with the piano, the currulao rhythm begins, which develops until the central section, where the euphonium shows its prominence through a cadenza and a solo that sounds like an improvisation.
