Here is Skunk - one of the new Leading Edge series of publications, in contemporary idiom, and perfect for the recital use where the soloist needs a modern work with fresh original colours and In demanding in range for the soloist.

its original form, Skunk was first performed by David Childs and Simon Parkin on January 26th 2001 at the RNCM Festival of Brass. Following subsequent revisions, the work later received its official premiere on January 7th 2004 in London's Purcell Room on the South Bank, performed by David Childs and pianist Harvey Davies.

Composed in a jazz-rock idiom the work seeks to explore both the technical and lyrical boundaries of the euphonium soloist and pianist.
