TROMBONE AND VOICE
_(New Music Ensemble, 27__h__ September 2012)_
a trombone rumbles melody starts,
lifting that belly of sound airborne
to divulge yearning, in demands
which are answered: a soprano sings,
vibrating, right up to the wide bell flare
orifice, intoning a tune between
mouthpiece and full-throated ease,
harmony sweating mumbled galingale;
here is a storm of uttered voice
gathering, girl in gale action
