- The phenomenon of "Embryonic Diapause" (delayed implantation) is a biological process in which embryo development temporarily halts in response to certain adverse environmental conditions. This overture-like piece for quintet aims to depict a phenomenon of constant change and interruption in the musical discourse, maintaining tension until the final chord. This reflects the idea that embryonic diapause is a process where development pauses and then resumes, creating a sense of instability and fluctuation. From a harmonic standpoint, it highlights the use of voicings typical in Big Band repertoire but with a decontextualized treatment. Ultimately, this quintet piece is not only a musical exercise with a micro-overture character but also an artistic and conceptual exploration through the timbral possibilities offered by a brass quintet. This piece seeks to immerse both the listener and the performer in a sonic experience that captures the very essence of "Embryonic Diapause."
