La Rossa is a metamorphosis of themes from A Brother Abroad, a work for Baritone and three instruments, commissioned from Martin Bussey by Pinner Music Festival and first performed in June 2021. This score is also available from CE.

This metamorphosis explores themes from the longer work about the life of the 14th century Bishop Peter of Corbavia. It centres on themes associated with Bishop Peter’s birthplace, Bologna, for which La Rossa is a nickname. Other themes are associated in the longer work with Peter’s spirituality and his transcending secular turmoil.

This solo work highlights many aspects of flute technique and presents diverse challenges. It received its first performance on June 14, 2023, at Pinner Music Festival, performed by Emma Halnan. The recording of that premiere can be accessed here:

It will be recorded by Emma, alongside the complete A Brother Abroad, in February 2024, for release by Resonus Classics.
