Originally written for solo keyboard, this pair of sonatas from the late Baroque render beautifully for modern saxophone quartets. The first is a slow andante in 3/4; the second is an energetic allegro in 3/8 time. Together they will bring a sense of artistic integrity to any concert.

Featuring four distinct movements in contrasting styles---Grave, Allegro, Largo e staccato, Allegro---this adaptation of an 18th Century masterwork has been arranged for saxphone quartet (AAAA). This work gives everyone equal responsibility for negotiating technically challenging passages while producing antiphonal effects when they play in opposing pairs. Detailed historic notes are included.

A composition in five movements that sound as if from a former age. They are in fact newly composed pieces but, stylistically speaking, are “historically accurate.†They can be performed separately or one after the other. The important thing is that the lead part at any point is given enough “space†in terms of dynamics and overall balance. Old music, newly composed, at times cheerful and at others solemn, which create the very special charm of this composition.

Ad terra was first performed in November 2017 at the Grachtenfestival (Amsterdam, Netherlands) by the Keuris Quartet, in a joint commission by the Grachtenfestival and Gaudeamus Muziekweek. Ad terra imagines the creation in the sun of individual photons and the sometimes thousands of years long struggle they have: bouncing around on their way from the core of the sun to the outer layers before finally being released and flying towards Earth.
