Ein
kurzweiliges,
kontrastreiches Opus,
angeregt durch das
Rascher-Quartett, dem es
auch gewidmet ist; keine
experimentelle, aber
instrumentengerechte,
neue Musik, auf die
Spiel- und
Ausdrucksmoglichkeiten
sowie auf den
spezifischen Klang eines
technisch und musikalisch
anspruchsvollen
Saxophon-Ensembles
bezogen (Sopran - Alt-
Tenor - Bariton)Funf
suitenformig locker
aneinander gereihte Satze
(Funf ,,Blatter) werden
durch ein
dodekaphonisches
Leitmotiv verknupft, das
zu Anfang eines jeden
Satzes erklingt.Im
Circulo ostinato bestimmt
diese Figur entscheidend
den Verlauf des Stuckes;
zu Beginn des Finales
verdichtet sie sich zum
vierstimmigen Kanon.
Ostinate und rhythmische
Formeln pragen den
Charakter des ganzen
Werkes.Allegro ruzzone
(Ubermut)Ein knappes
lebhaftes Eingangsstuck;
auf dem Hohepunkt
erscheint, wie ein
Atemholen, ein
melodisch-ausdrucksvoller
Gedanke, der sich
imitatorisch im Kreise
dreht, ehe eine kurze
Stretta in schnellem
Tempo zum
Pianissimoschluss
fuhrt.Circulo ostinato
(Kreisende Wiederholung)
(Andante con moto)Der
Mittelteil des Satzes
entwickelt sich aus
gestauten
Tonwiederholungen und den
melodischen Flosklen des
Urthemas in immer neuen
Anlaufen zu grosser
Steigerung. Am Anfang und
Ende steht ein
mehrstimmiger Kanon, der
um eine abwarts
gerichtete chromatische
Tonfolge kreist.Ballo
estatico (,,Entfesselter
Tanz) (Allegro molto)In
diesem Satz dominieren
rhythmisch tanzerische
und aggressive Elemente;
drei verschiedene
Episoden entfalten sich
uber ostinaten
Bassbewegungen, die
letzte gerat zur ,,freien
Variation uber Debussys
(,,Golliwoggs cake walk
aus den ,,Children's
Corner).Sogno solitario
(Einsamer Traum)
(Andante)Der ,,langsame
Satz des Quartetts wachst
aus rezitativischem
Beginn, uber einen
ausdrucksvollen
Mittelteil (mit
engraumiger Melodik) bis
zu einer ausgedehnten
Trillerflache und
dichten, abwarts
sturzenden chromatischen
Figuren (Quintolen),
kehrt uber einen ruhigen
Abschnitt (in tiefer
Lage) zum Rezitativ
zuruck, klingt verhalten
aus.Fugato scherzando
(Allegro molto)Ein
virtuos humorvolles
Finale, nach dem
einleitenden
vierstimmigen
,,Kreisel-Kanon des
Leitmotivs entwickelt
sich aus einem skurrilen
Thema eine rhythmisch
vertrackte Fuge,
unterbrochen von einem
trioahnlichen Intermezzo
und wirkungsvoll
turbulent zum befreienden
Schluss gesteigert.(Jurg

This suite
was inspired most notably
by the saxophone quartets
of Phil Woods and was
written in a conscious
attempt to wed certain
stylistic elements of
classical and jazz music.
The players are not asked
to improvise, but the
piece does feature
sections that sound
spontaneous and freely
created. The piece is
difficult, but no more so
than other quartets, like
Glazunov and Desenclos,
that are standard
repertoire for this
instrumentation. Talented
high school and all
college groups will find
success working on this
piece. The first
movement, subtitled Danse
Macabre, is ominous,
dark, sometimes bluesy,
and is propelled along by
the use of intricate
counterpoint and an
improvised sounding solo
section for the tenor
saxophone.

Two
objectives were in mind
while transcribing the
Finale. One was to
produce a relatively
clean manuscript with a
minimum of articulation
and dynamic markings so
as to allow
interpretation by the
performers. The
articulation markings
placed at the beginning
of the work are provided
only as suggestions.
Secondly, the melodies
were divided among all
parts, rather than a solo
featuring just the
soprano saxophone. The
Finale, a molto allegro
in rondo form, should
sparkle with cheerful
charm and wit.
Saxophonists should
strive for the lightness
and grace so prevalent in
much of Mozart's timeless
music.

At the age
of 14, Felix Mendelssohn
Bartholdy wrote the
string quartet this
arrangement is based on.
Youthful carefreeness and
early artistic maturity
combine into a varied
musical experience. From
the buoyant allegro of
the first movement to the
complex double fugue of
the finale---this piece
is a real pleasure to
both performers and
audience alike. Arranged
for saxophone quartet
(SATB).
