21st Century (2005). For tuba, string quartet (2 violins, viola, cello) & piano. "Allegro Fuoco" was written for the Final of the Hungarian Brass Competition 2006. The piece is short, very compact, in Eastern European folklore music style. When I started to work on this piece, I first wanted to write a "simple" tuba and piano recital piece, but after a few bars I have decided to make an additional version for tuba, string quartet and piano, to give the piece even more power. -the composer
