Bitter Melons

Many years ago, a colleague of Brent Dutton's, Dr. Rodney Kirk, introduced him to field recordings of the music of the Kalahari Bushmen. Brent heard the tune Bitter Melons and thought it would be a great way to introduce their music to our audiences. The tune is stated in its unadorned fashion as a trombone solo and then treated to some modern reworking.
"Bitter Melons" was arranged for the Westwind Brass by Brent Dutton, and was recorded and released by the Westwind Brass on their CD, "Dutton's World Resounds"
