Description:
Crossover Suite No. 1 comprises five stylistically very diverse movements.
1. INTRODUCTION:
A brisk opening leads to a bass groove on baritone saxophone. Various animated stylistic elements such as finger snaps are contrasted with 'straighter' elements familiar from march music.
2. VIENNESE WALTZ:
A waltz in a minor key, with the characteristic and unmistakable accompaniment in the Viennese style.
3. ROUNDABOUT:
Roundabout is a rondo with recurring motifs and a point of rest in the adagio.
4. STOMPS AND CLAPS:
As the name suggests, the work is performed with the help of hands and feet. Body percussion alternates with technically demanding passages.
5. FINALE:
A rapid final movement with a dolce middle part leads to a furious closing section with changes of meter and some dynamic surprises.
Each movement can also stand on its own, but when performed as a complete suite this composition shows off the full breadth and capability of a saxophone quartet.
