usual and exposes more. The euphonium must carry the entire emotional argument through
breath, vibrato, colour, and the direction of a line that seems reluctant to come to
rest.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The notes are not extreme, which makes &lt;em&gt;Vocalise&lt;/em&gt; accessible before it becomes easy.
Breaths must be placed without breaking the harmonic tension, soft attacks must speak,
and intensity has to grow without turning every climax into volume.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
