This quartet was written to cater for developing quartets and players, who may not have access to a baritone saxophone. It's a gentle and responsive piece exploiting the homogeneous nature of the saxophone family. This is demonstrated in the way the instruments move together in close harmony.. With more than a touch of jazz to the harmonies, a great short piece for lower grade players.

Mozart's Finale from Sonata No. 11, KV 331, also known as Rondo alla Turca, is one of his most recognized works. This tuneful, lively work was composed in the late 1770s, and since then has been transcribed for many ensembles. Two objectives were in mind while transcribing the Rondo alla Turca. One was to produce a relatively clean manuscript with a minimum of articulation and dynamic markings so as to allow interpretation by the performers. Such markings found here are provided only as suggestions. Secondly, rather than featuring just the solo soprano saxophone, the melodies were given to other parts as well.

Noels (the French spelling) are old but enduring carols that often tell a ballad-like story. Nowells (English spelling) are likely derived from and developed by English wandering minstrels. Both carols and nowells are often in 3/4 meter, lending themselveswell to dance. The First Nowell is one of a few carols that survived a ban on Christmas by the English Parliament in 1645. The tune is one of the oldest ballad carols, perhaps dating back to 1500, and likely originating in England. This arrangement of The First Nowell has multiple settings of the 3/4 time melody. This arrangement for saxophone quartet (SATBar)---rather than favoring a soprano solo with accompaniment---strives to include all the players in the music making, particularly by distributing melodic material throughout the ensemble. In addition, all dynamics and articulations should be taken as suggestions only, as performers are encouraged to make their own interpretations.

“Tico-Tico†is a well-known Brazilian piece composed by Zequinha de Abreu. Georges Sadeler arranged this work for Saxophone and Clarinet Quartet. Georges Sadeler, born in 1988 is a Luxembourgish composer and saxophonist with the Grand Ducal Military Band of Luxembourg. His father kindled his interest in composing and arranging at an early age, a study he later continued under his two teachers Marco Pütz and Claude Lenners, both of whom taught at the Conservatoire of Music, Luxembourg. He gradually began to establish his own style, combining the enormous range of possibilities of contemporary music and classical music and, in the years that followed, he won six first prizes at various national and international composition competitions. His works have since been performed all over Europe.

The Catalan composer and vihuela player Luis de Milan (1500-1561) ranks among the most important composers of the Spanish Renaissance. His collection El Maestro from 1536 was the first publication of vihuela music in music history (the vihuela is a predecessor of the guitar). The six pavans contained therein are typical examples of the stately processional dance. According to the etymological derivation of'pavo' (Spanish/Latin: 'peacock'), this characteristic bird call which can be performed freely and naturalistically by the saxophoneplayer can sometimes be heard in this 'peacock's dance'. World premiere: 15.2.2017 Ballhaus Berlin, with Domiki Wollenweber (cor anglais) and the saxophone quartet CLAIR OBSCUR. Also published by Schott: a version for alto saxophone (cor anglais) and organ (ED 21260).

Arachnophobia - fear of spiders - is the title of one of Maxime Aulio's first compositions for saxophone quartet (SATB). It is a simple musical amusement and a humorous allusion to the composer's fear of spiders. Come forth intrepid saxophone players! Arachnophobie betekent: ‘Angst voor spinnen'...! Het is de welluidende titel van het nieuwe werk voor saxofoonkwartet van Maxime Aulios. Ook de afzonderlijke delen hebben natuurlijk toepasselijke titels. Zo passeren Spinnendans, Marsvan de vogelspin en Zwarte Weduwe allemaal de revue. Bang voor spinnen? Na het horen van dit prachtige werk vast niet meer!Arachnophobie - Angst vor Spinnen - ist der klangvolle Titel einer von Maxime Aulios ersten Kompositionen für Saxophonquartett. Mit einem Augenzwinkern bezieht er sich darin auf seine eigene Angst vor Spinnen. Keine Angst vor diesem anspruchsvollen Werk sollten Saxophonisten haben: Die Mühe lohnt sich! Arachnophobie, la phobie des araignées, est le titre d'une délicieuse composition en trois mouvements (Danse d'araignées - Marche de la mygale - Veuves noires) de Maxime Aulio, écrite pour quatuor de saxophones. N'ayez crainte, cette œuvre qui ne vous piquera pas, vaut la peine d'être jouée. L'aracnofobia, ovvero la paura dei ragni, è il tema di questo brano per 4 sassofoni (SATB) di Maxime Aulio. Anche i titoli dei tre movimenti fanno riferimento ai ragni: La danza dei ragni, La marcia dei ragni, La vedova nera. Un brano esigente, ma che i sassofonisti non devono temere. Anzi, in concerto proporranno una musica nuova ed accattivante!
