Nuages
(Clouds) is the first
movement from the
orchestral tryptych,
Nocturnes written in 1899
and inspired by a series
of impressionist
paintings by the same
name by James Abbot
McNeill Whistler. The
work is flowing and
mysterious and uses the
sky as the musical canvas
with the slow motion of
the clouds floating
across with the tones of
color from white to dark
gray. Randall Malmstrom's
unique arrangement for
8-part Trombone Ensemble
uses a family of mutes
(optional....straight,
cup and bucket) to bring
out the colors of
Debussy's work of
genius.
