Genetic Code, Thomas Doss. Brass Band

Genetic Code - Thomas Doss

Description
The source of inspiration for this composition was the so-called genetic code. Something which is universal, as almost all organisms on our planet use the same code for their genetic information and therefore speak the same language, as it were. The fact that plants, animals, and humans are all subject to the universality of this code fascinates the composer time and time again. Thus, he has chosen a musical motif for this phenomenon, which has been woven through the various musical passages of this work like a genetic thread.

Genetic Code was commissioned by the Swiss Brass Band Association to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Swiss Brass Band Championships, in 2025, and to be the compulsory piece in the Excellence Division that same year.
