“Prem
iered in 2013, Sweet And
Go for solo Saxophone
elegantly explores the
poetic and technical
resources of the
instrument Armando
Ghidoni knows so well
(Concerto pour saxophone
et orchestre à
cordes; Concerto Grosso
pour saxophone alto,
piano et
orchestre). The
diptych, approximately
five minutes in length,
opens with an Adagio, a
free deEclamation in
recitative that is an
oasis of tenderness to
which the glissandi bring
a whiff of the Orient. In
contrast to this
voluptuous dream, the
second section, marked
Vivo brilante ben
ritmato, allows the
soloist to display a
sparkling virtuosity '
slaps included! ' without
betraying the underlying
spirit of improvisation.
Melodies, rhythms,
nuances and colours all
contribute to this
festival of
ingenuity.&rdquo.
