Description:
Composed for a champion of contemporary music, Lynn Klock, this soloistic piece is relatively brief, but captures the best qualities of the alto saxophone and the artist. Technical passages add vigor and excitement to a driving piano accompaniment, and soaring melodies give the instrument a chance to sing in the upper register. Moving quickly from lyric to virtuosic, it accelerates to a resounding close that will leave the audience breathless. A consummate closing selection or recital encore. Duration - 6:00.
