Saxophone Concerto: Reduction for Soprano Saxophone and Piano

Více o knize

Inspired by Scottish traditional music, this work for soprano saxophone and string orchestra unfolds in three movements. The first movement, a lively March, Strathspey, and Reel, features increasing tempos typical of dance medleys. The second movement loosely follows Gaelic psalm singing practices, with the solo saxophone leading a melodic line while the string orchestra creates a heterophonic texture. The final movement is grounded in a simple jig rhythm, marked 'giocoso', adding a playful character to the piece.
