About this arrangement

Alto saxophone/baritone saxophone - Grade 4 SKU: FA.MFPRW044SX Composed by Paul Wehage. American music for winds. Classical : Modern. Score and Parts. Musik Fabrik #MFPRW044SX. Published by Musik Fabrik (FA.MFPRW044SX). 8.27 x 11.69 inches.Four Sketches is written in a contrapunctal, extended-tonal style and is in four movements The first movement, Invention, uses canonic writing and imitative couterpoint. Valse Lente, is a slowly expressive waltz with the two instruments presenting the melody in the different sections. Berceuse begins as a soft cradlesong, but gradually the music becomes more expansive before returning to the first theme to end the movement quietly. The final Marche is a jaunty, stylized comic march in which the theme is passed between the two instruments. Passages involving "hocketing" underlined by articulation effects create rythmnic tension before the piece comes to a close.
