Concerto for Soprano Saxophone and Band
Composers:
Detailed Instrumentation: Soprano Sax, Band- Bolcom, William
Duration: 17 minutes
Description: There are three movements in this Concerto. Lively, with humor contrasts the opening material featuring the high register of the saxophone with a more bluesy second theme in the lower part. Serenade follows with a sort of South Seas rhythm-and-blues atmosphere. Shimmy tosses itself between a jazz-type “head” with what customarily follows versus a 1960s early-rock-style hymn with 1930s echoes. These two things together grow into an apotheosis, ending the concerto.
