The work was conceived to feature each of the players individually in addition to the ensemble as a whole. One voice has the melodic lead a great deal of the time and there are solo cadenzas for the other three parts. The work emplies both the sonorous harmonies and rhythmic drive and power that can be generated by a group of four bass tubas.
