Ab ovo for alto
saxophone and two
organists (one organ) was
awarded the prize in the
Polish National
Composer’s Competition
in Warsaw, Poland (1988).
The work is a one
movement composition
written originally for a
three manual organ. The
musical language of the
piece employs an
alternation of
quasi-baroque motifs and
polyphony (organ part)
with more avant-garde
texture (cluster-like
chords). The saxophone
part is very free in its
dramatic and lyrical
expression, and is full
of different techniques
often influenced by
associations with jazz
(fast repetitions,
glissandi, and aleatoric
passages). The sales set
contains a bound score
for the organ and a
single-leaf score for the
saxophonist. 25 pages
